PROGRAM EXPLANATION
Algorithm and explanation
- Initialize the sample values used to create and access a dictionary.
- Apply dict and get() to compute the required result.
- Display the result for create and access a dictionary and compare it with the documented sample output.
This example of create and access a dictionary computes the result directly from the prepared sample data. It demonstrates dict and get() and prints a deterministic result that can be checked against the sample output.

Common mistakes
For create and access a dictionary, keep the data shape and value types consistent with dict.
Apply dict in the same order shown by the algorithm; changing the order can change the result.
Verify the final dict and get() result against the sample before trying new data.
