Method Name:
reversed
Method Signature:
reversed(d)
Parameters:
d – A dictionary object
Return Value:
Returns a reverse iterator for the given dictionary object. The iterator type returned is dict_reversekeyiterator.
Overview:
-
The method reversed() returns a reverse iterator for a given Python dictionary instance.
- Using the returned reverse iterator the dictionary keys and values can be accessed in the reverse order.
Example:
|
# Example Python program that uses the reverse iterator of a dictionary
# Create a Python dictionary of rgb values color = {"r":124, "g":234, "b":126};
# Print the dictionary in regular order print("Dictionary printed in forward Order:"); for c in color: print(c, color[c]);
# Print the dictionary in reverse order print("Dictionary printed in reverse Order:"); for c in reversed(color): print(c, color[c]); |
Output:
|
Dictionary printed in forward Order: r 124 g 234 b 126 Dictionary printed in reverse Order: b 126 g 234 r 124 |
