The notes below the video describe .popitem() as returning a random key:value pair as a tuple, but it actually seems to be just a set seed that returns an arbitrary pair, based on the internal ordering of the dictionary, as it will return the same tuple sequence every time the program is run. In my experience 'arbitrary' != 'random' in nearly all cases I have come across. Cisco asa 5520 activation key generator.

Dict Values To List
May 27, 2019 This way you’ve gotten access to the keys (key) and values (adictkey) of adict at the same time, and you’ll be able to perform any action on them. Iterating Through.values It’s also common to only use the values to iterate through a dictionary in Python. Sep 05, 2015 JavaScript Basics: How to create a Dictionary with Key/Value pairs. In statically typed programming languages a Dictionary (Key/Value pair collection) object can be very useful at times. While JavaScript doesn’t natively include a type called “Dictionary”, it does contain a very flexible type called “Object”. Feb 13, 2018 You can input both keys and values using input method and process it to separate the keys and values. codeclasslist = dict data = input('Enter name & score.

variation. I can return random values just fine, but how would I actually retrieve the key:value pair instead? Everything I've tried has come up with errors, usually referring to lists not being hashable, or something of the kind. Any suggestions or alternative approaches would be welcome.
one way would be to use randint instead of choice with arguments of 0 and len(my_dict)-1. let's store that in variable b. this will be the range of indices in a list of the keys of my_dict. store the list in a variable s, then you can create the tuple s[b], my_dict.get(s[b]). the tuple will be a random k:v pair from my_dict.
I see what you mean. I guess I just wanted to make sure I wasn't overlooking a better variation of random._____() that would do the job or some way of doing it besides list(my_dict) that would return a tuple instead of just the value or key, since my_dict.popitem() returns a tuple. I guess I hadn't thought of doing the easier alternative and just building the tuple myself. This will work for now, thanks.
*** Edit *** I suppose the example I used in my question wasn't the best, in practice, since simply changing it to list(my_dict.keys()) would suffice the randomness needed to replace .popitem() the way I wanted to. your answer still works beautifully for other requirements I had elsewhere, though. Thanks.
