Using the popitem() Method: Removing the Last Inserted Item
Dictionaries also have a popitem() method that removes and returns the last key-value pair.
book = { "title": "Pride and Prejudice", "author": "Jane Austen", "year": 1813, "genre": "Romance" } # Removing the last key-value pair using popitem() popped_item = book.popitem() # Printing the updated dictionary and the removed pair print("Removed item:", popped_item) print("Updated dictionary:", book)
Task
Swipe to start coding
You are given the dictionary authors_books.
Your goal:
- Remove the last element from the dictionary.
- Add a new element with the key
'Mark Twain'and the value['The Adventures of Tom Sawyer', 'Adventures of Huckleberry Finn', 'The Prince and the Pauper']. - Use the
popitem()method to remove the last element.
