How does 'get' in 'dictionaries' work?

Question

Suppose this code:
p = {
1: 2,
2: 4,
4: 8,
8: 16,
True:False
}

print(p.get(1))

p2 = {
1: 2,
2: 4,
4: 8,
8: 16,
}

print(p2.get(1))

#------------------------------------
why the 1st output is False and the second one is 2 ??
based on previous learning, both of them must be the same.

please elaborate more on that.

Answer 1

on the other hand, in the 1st code, 'p.get(1)' must refer to '2' and must explain why it refer to 'False'?

Answer 2

Python dictionaries don't support duplicate keys.
so as True also corresponds to 1, the value for key 1 is overwritten and it becomes False.

There are ways you need to support duplicate keys in python e.g defaultdict:

Answer 3

it is because the default value of True is 1 , since it is a keyword . use 'true' instead of 'True'
