# builtins.dict - pydoc - phpman

Help on class dict in builtins:

builtins.dict = class dict(object)
 |  dict() -> new empty dictionary
 |  dict(mapping) -> new dictionary initialized from a mapping object's
 |      (key, value) pairs
 |  dict(iterable) -> new dictionary initialized as if via:
 |      d = {}
 |      for k, v in iterable:
 |          d[k] = v
 |  dict(**kwargs) -> new dictionary initialized with the name=value pairs
 |      in the keyword argument list.  For example:  dict(one=1, two=2)
 |
 |  Methods defined here:
 |
 |  __contains__(self, key, /)
 |      True if the dictionary has the specified key, else False.
 |
 |  __delitem__(self, key, /)
 |      Delete self[key].
 |
 |  __eq__(self, value, /)
 |      Return self==value.
 |
 |  __ge__(self, value, /)
 |      Return self>=value.
 |
 |  __getattribute__(self, name, /)
 |      Return getattr(self, name).
 |
 |  __getitem__(...)
 |      x.__getitem__(y) <==> x[y]
 |
 |  __gt__(self, value, /)
 |      Return self>value.
 |
 |  __init__(self, /, *args, **kwargs)
 |      Initialize self.  See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.
 |
 |  __ior__(self, value, /)
 |      Return self|=value.
 |
 |  __iter__(self, /)
 |      Implement iter(self).
 |
 |  __le__(self, value, /)
 |      Return self<=value.
 |
 |  __len__(self, /)
 |      Return len(self).
 |
 |  __lt__(self, value, /)
 |      Return self<value.
 |
 |  __ne__(self, value, /)
 |      Return self!=value.
 |
 |  __or__(self, value, /)
 |      Return self|value.
 |
 |  __repr__(self, /)
 |      Return repr(self).
 |
 |  __reversed__(self, /)
 |      Return a reverse iterator over the dict keys.
 |
 |  __ror__(self, value, /)
 |      Return value|self.
 |
 |  __setitem__(self, key, value, /)
 |      Set self[key] to value.
 |
 |  __sizeof__(...)
 |      D.__sizeof__() -> size of D in memory, in bytes
 |
 |  clear(...)
 |      D.clear() -> None.  Remove all items from D.
 |
 |  copy(...)
 |      D.copy() -> a shallow copy of D
 |
 |  get(self, key, default=None, /)
 |      Return the value for key if key is in the dictionary, else default.
 |
 |  items(...)
 |      D.items() -> a set-like object providing a view on D's items
 |
 |  keys(...)
 |      D.keys() -> a set-like object providing a view on D's keys
 |
 |  pop(...)
 |      D.pop(k[,d]) -> v, remove specified key and return the corresponding value.
 |
 |      If the key is not found, return the default if given; otherwise,
 |      raise a KeyError.
 |
 |  popitem(self, /)
 |      Remove and return a (key, value) pair as a 2-tuple.
 |
 |      Pairs are returned in LIFO (last-in, first-out) order.
 |      Raises KeyError if the dict is empty.
 |
 |  setdefault(self, key, default=None, /)
 |      Insert key with a value of default if key is not in the dictionary.
 |
 |      Return the value for key if key is in the dictionary, else default.
 |
 |  update(...)
 |      D.update([E, ]**F) -> None.  Update D from dict/iterable E and F.
 |      If E is present and has a .keys() method, then does:  for k in E: D[k] = E[k]
 |      If E is present and lacks a .keys() method, then does:  for k, v in E: D[k] = v
 |      In either case, this is followed by: for k in F:  D[k] = F[k]
 |
 |  values(...)
 |      D.values() -> an object providing a view on D's values
