How to Access a Value in Python Dictionary

In Python, you can access the elements in a dictionary by following methods: 

• To retrieve the value connected to a particular key, use the square bracket notation "[]". 
• The "get()" function can also be used to retrieve dictionary items. 
• get(): The dictionary's built-in Python get() function enables you to obtain the value associated with a particular key without throwing a KeyError if the key cannot be located in the dictionary.  
• The "in keyword" may also be used to determine whether a key is included in the dictionary. 
• in keyword: In Python, the in keyword is used to check if a specific item or value is present in a collection, such as a list, tuple, string, or dictionary. 
• You can use the “keys()” method to access all the keys in a dictionary and the “values()” method to access all the values. 
• keys(): In Python, the keys() method is a built-in method of dictionaries that returns a view object containing the keys of the dictionary. 
• values(): In Python, the values() method is a built-in method of dictionaries that returns a view object containing the dictionary’s values.
