The Len Function Of Dictionary Views

# Example Python program that gets the length
# of a dictionary view object

# Create an empty dictionary
cityVsTemperature = dict();

# Record the temeprature of various cities
cityVsTemperature["Vancouver"]     = 46;
cityVsTemperature["Toronto"]     = 46;
cityVsTemperature["Montreal"]     = 51;
cityVsTemperature["Calgary"]     = 25 ;
cityVsTemperature["Quebec"]     = 42;

# Get the view on the keys part of the dictionary
keysView = cityVsTemperature.keys();

# Print the key count
keyCount = len(keysView);
print("There are %d keys in the dictionary"%keyCount);

# Example Python program that gets
# the length of the dictionary view of type
# dict_values

# Create a Python dictionary
intervalVsFrequency = {"00-01":1045,
                       "01-02":1120,
                       "02-03":1200,
                       "03-04":1670,
                       "04-05":1500,
                       };

# Get a view on the values part of the dictionary
valuesView = intervalVsFrequency.values();

# Get the value count
valueCount = len(valuesView);
print(valueCount);

# Example Python program that gets the view of a dictionary items and prints its length

# Create a dictionary
