PY4E Quiz: Dictionaries - Python 3.7x Updates

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Since Python 3.7x the order of key-value pairs is the same as their input order, i.e. dictionaries are now ordered structures.

Question 1. How are Python dictionaries different from Python lists?

(1)Python lists can store strings and dictionaries can only store words
(2)Python lists maintain order and dictionaries do not maintain order
(3)Python dictionaries are a collection and lists are not a collection
(4)Python lists store multiple values and dictionaries store a single value

Question 6. (T/F) When you add items to a dictionary they remain in the order in which you added them.

PY4E Quiz says Q1 is (2) and Q6 is (F).

PS I'm teaching myself python via PY4E and watching the videos on Coursera. This is an amazing resource. Thank you!

I fixed these on www.py4e.com - but Coursera has locked changes to quizzes in their existing too so a fix will take more time.
