Description
The Python defaultdict
type behaves almost exactly like a regular Python dictionary, but if you try to access or modify a missing key, then defaultdict
will automatically create the key and generate a default value for it. This makes defaultdict
a valuable option for handling missing keys in dictionaries.
In this course, you’ll learn:
- How to use the Python
defaultdict
type for handling missing keys in a dictionary - When and why to use a Python
defaultdict
rather than a regulardict
