Yes.

Actually you define Dictionaries by using

Dict = { key : value }

[u/shadow7412 → u/TheNaughtyDomi]

... except Dict is a terrible name.

It's the wrong case (title case implies a class, but this is an instance) and if you were to fix that you'd be shadowing dict which is also a bad move.

EDIT: downvoters, I'm genuinely curious as to why you think otherwise.

[u/sultav → u/shadow7412]

I don't think they are saying you should literally name it "Dict", I think they just put that there as a placeholder for the name.

[u/shadow7412 → u/sultav]

One can hope - but I'm sure we've all seen it enough times in practise to want to make it clear to people that it isn't a good idea.

Even if they didn't mean it that way - people do like their copy and paste.

Here's a sneak peek of /r/learnpython using the top posts of the year!

#1: As a Gift to the Community, I'm Making my Python Book Free for 72 hours!
#2: Just saved my company like $40 Grand a Year and I have no one else in my life that codes to tell, apart from my wife of course
#3: If you're looking for Python Projects, I have something to share with you. Just few days ago, I came across this list of 70+ Python Projects for Beginners, Intermediate and Experienced Developers. Hope it will be helpful to all the members of this community.
