- Which would you use to get the number of elements in a dictionary? length size sizeof lenarrow_forwardData structures concatenate_dict(dict_list:list)->dict This function will be given a single parameter known as the Dictionary List. Your job is to combine all the dictionaries found in the dictionary list into a single dictionary and return it. There are two rules for adding values to the dictionary: 1. You must add key-value pairs to the dictionary in the same order they are found in the Dictionary List. 2. If the key already exists, it cannot be overwritten. In other words, if two or more dictionaries have the same key, the key to be added cannot be overwritten by the subsequent dictionaries. Example: Dictionary List: [{'Z': 6, 'k': 10, 'w': 3, 'I': 8, 'Y': 5}, {'Y': 1, 'Z': 4}, {'X': 2, 'L': 5}] Expected: {'Z': 6, 'k': 10, 'w': 3, 'I': 8, 'Y': 5, 'X': 2, 'L': 5} Dictionary List: [{'z': 0}, {'z': 7}] Expected: {'z': 0} Dictionary List: [{'b': 7}, {'b': 10, 'A': 8, 'Z': 2, 'V': 1}] Expected: {'b': 7, 'A': 8, 'Z': 2, 'V': 1}arrow_forwardExercise: Least Dictionary Value Description In this exercise you will find the value in a dictionary with the least value.

- Python program named "YourMuseumID_Exhibits.py" focusing on museum exhibit data: You have a list of dictionaries representing exhibits in a museum. Each dictionary contains the exhibit name, the number of artifacts on display, and the historical era it covers. Perform the following tasks: (a) Calculate and display the total number of artifacts on display for all exhibits in the museum. (b) Identify and display the exhibit with the highest number of artifacts on display. (c) Implement a function that takes a user-input exhibit name and searches for it in the list. If found, display the number of artifacts on display and the historical era it covers; if not found, print a message indicating that the exhibit is not in the museum. (d) Implement a sorting algorithm of your choice to sort the exhibits based on the number of artifacts on display in descending order and display the sorted list. Make sure to incorporate functions for each task and display the results in the main function with…arrow_forwardPython coding language Create a static dictionary with a number of users and with the following values: First name Last name Email address Password Ask the user for: 5. Email address 6. Password Loop (for()) through the dictionary and if (if()) the user is found print the following: 7. Hello, first name last name you have successfully logged in 8. Notify the user if the password and email address are wrong 9. Additional challenge: if you want the program to keep asking for a username and password when the combination is wrong, you will need a while() loop. 10.

- Data structures unique_values(a_dict:dict)-> dict This function will receive a single dictionary parameter known as a_dict. a_dict will contain a single letter as a string and numbers as values. This function is supposed to search a_dict to find all values that appear only once in the a_dict. The function will create another dictionary named to_ret. For all values that appear once in a_dict the function will add the value as a key in to_ret and set the value of the key to the key of the value in a_dict (swap the key-value pairs, since a_dict contains letters to numbers, to_ret will contain Numbers to Letters). Finally, the function should return to_ret. Example: a_dict: {'X': 2, 'Y': 5, 'N': 2, 'L': 2, 'W': 1, 'G': 0, 'R': 1} Expected: {5: 'Y', 0: 'G'} a_dict: {'Z': 3, 'P': 3, 'E': 2, 'G': 0, 'T': 5, 'L': 1, 'Q': 0} to_ret: {2: 'E', 5: 'T', 1: 'L'} a_dict: {'E': 3, 'X': 3} to_ret: {} a_dict: {'G': 3, 'D': 3, 'C': 4, 'Q': 1, 'H': 1, 'M': 2, 'Z': 1, 'W': 3} to_ret: {4: 'C', 2: 'M'}…arrow_forwarddef add_key_values(x: str)-> dict[str, int]: "Return a dictionary where the keys are the distinct characters appearing in x and the values are how many times they appear."

Your job is to convert the string into an actual dictionary and return the dictionary. Make sure all key-value pairs in the string exist in the newly created dictionary. The string will contain only numbers or single letters as key values pairs. Make sure all letters are kept as strings and all numbers are converted to integers in the newly created dictionary. Example: String Input: '{9: 'V', 'G': 0, 'M': 9, 'u': 3, 2: 'o', 8: 'u', 'q': 9, 'D': 1}' Expected: {9: 'V', 'G': 0, 'M': 9, 'u': 3, 2: 'o', 8: 'u', 'q': 9, 'D': 1} String Input: '{10: 'D', 1: 'Z', 5: 'a'}' Expected: {10: 'D', 1: 'Z', 5: 'a'} String Input: '{'M': 2, 'V': 0, 3: 'x', 6: 'J', 5: 'J', 7: 'T', 8: 'P', 4: 'q', 1: 'h'}' Expected: {'M': 2, 'V': 0, 3: 'x', 6: 'J', 5: 'J', 7: 'T', 8: 'P', 4: 'q', 1: 'h'} String Input: '{3: 'D', 10: 'T', 7: 'm', 'u': 9, 't': 5, 6: 'Z', 'H': 10, 'B':…arrow_forward
