Contents of the dict_values changes when the dictionary is changed of a value.

Values of a Python dictionary as a dict_view object

Parameters:

None

Return Value:

Example:

# Example Python program that obtains a view
# of the values from a Python dictionary
d1 = {"x":27, "y":-2, "z":5}
vals = d1.values()
print("Values present in the dictionary:")
print(type(vals))
print(vals)

# Change the value of y
d1["y"] = -4

# Witness the dictionary changes from the view
print("After changes in values of the dictionary:")
print(vals)

Output:

Values present in the dictionary:
<class 'dict_values'>
dict_values([27, -2, 5])
After changes in values of the dictionary:
dict_values([27, -4, 5])
