Function Details: keys

Description

Returns a new view of the dictionary's keys.

Extended Description

The keys() method returns a view object that contains all the keys in the dictionary. This view object is dynamic, meaning it reflects any changes made to the dictionary. The keys view supports set operations when compared to other views, making it useful for comparing dictionaries. In Python 3, dict_keys objects are not directly subscriptable, but can be easily converted to a list if needed.

Function Signature

dict.keys() -> dict_keys

Module: dict

Class: dictionary

Parameters

Return

Returns a dict_keys object, which is a view of the dictionary's keys.

Return Type

dict_keys

Output

Explanation

This example shows how to use keys() and convert the result to a list.
