Define default values in the dictionary with .get () and .setdefault ()

Suppose we have a dictionary with different keys, such as the item and the price of the item. At some point in the code, we want to get a count of entries and assume that the key is also included in the dictionary. When we simply try to access the key, it crashes our code and raises a KeyError. So it's better to use the .get () method in the dictionary. This also returns the value of the key, but if the key is not available, it does not raise a key error. Instead, it returns the default value we specified, or None if we don't specify it.

My_dict = {'item':' football', 'price': 10.00} price = my_dict [' count'] # KeyError! # better: price = my_dict.get ('count', 0) # optional default value above is all about the article "how to use python to define default values in dictionaries.
