 #  Team Edge dictionaries: Dictionaries CHALLENGES 
 # 
 #  For this activity, you will be building a dictionary and with properties
 #  and methods. You will access the properties, set new values, and use
 #  the methods to change your dictionary state. What dictionary? Ask your coach.
 # 
 #  1. DEFINE: Make a dictionary and set its properties, printing changes in between.
 #  2. MODIFY: Add 2 new properties and assing values. Change existing values,
 #     including adding or updating values inside lists
 #  3. METHODS: Now its time to make some methods. Then can simply make a change
 #     to your values, like a boolean, or they can print something about
 #     the dictionary. Nothing fancy, unless you fancy it.
 #  4. LITERALLY: Use string literals to put it all together in one statement.
 #

#Below is a simple example of a dictionary implementaion. 
#-->TODO: Add at least 3 comments to the dictionary below to demonstrate you understand its usage

dictionary = {
    "name": "box",
    "is_empty": True
}
#working with the dictionary:
dictionary["length"] = 12
dictionary["width"] = 8
dictionary["contents"] = ["thing 1", "thing 2", "thing 3"]
print(f"{dictionary['name']} is {dictionary['length']} {dictionary['width']}")
dictionary["contents"].append("thing 4")
print(f"{dictionary['name']} has {dictionary['contents']}")
print(dictionary)

 

#-->TODO: Declare a new dictionary and set at least 4 properties to it including: string, boolean, number, list
