In this tutorial, we will learn about the Python Dictionary values() method with the help of examples.
The values() method returns a view object that displays a list of all the values in the dictionary.
Example
marks = {'Physics':67, 'Maths':87}
print(marks.values())
# Output: dict_values([67, 87])
1. Syntax of Dictionary values()
The syntax of values() is:
dictionary.values()
2. values() Parameters
values() method doesn’t take any parameters.
3. Return value from values()
values() method returns a view object that displays a list of all values in a given dictionary.
4. Example 1: Get all values from the dictionary
# random sales dictionary
sales = { 'apple': 2, 'orange': 3, 'grapes': 4 }
print(sales.values())
Output
dict_values([2, 4, 3])
5. Example 2: How values() works when a dictionary is modified?
# random sales dictionary
sales = { 'apple': 2, 'orange': 3, 'grapes': 4 }
values = sales.values()
print('Original items:', values)
# delete an item from dictionary
del[sales['apple']]
print('Updated items:', values)
Output
Original items: dict_values([2, 4, 3]) Updated items: dict_values([4, 3])
The view object values doesn’t itself return a list of sales item values but it returns a view of all values of the dictionary.
If the list is updated at any time, the changes are reflected on the view object itself, as shown in the above program.
