How does popitem() work in Python?
Python’s in-built popitem() method is used to remove the last inserted element in a dictionary and return that element as a tuple.
Syntax
dict.popitem()
dict.popitem()
Parameter and return value
The popitem() method does not require any parameters. In addition, it returns the value that was removed from the dictionary as a key:value pair in a tuple.
Example
postcodes = dict(griffith=2603, belconnen=2617, phillip=2606)last_item = postcodes.popitem()print(postcodes)print(last_item)
