d["Connection"]='kee-alive'
d["Host"]='www.labex.io'
TypeError("'ImmutableDict' objects are immutable")
TypeError("'ImmutableDict' objects are immutable")
d.get("Host")='www.labex.io'

🎯 Tasks

In this project, you will learn:

  • How to create an ImmutableDict class that inherits from the built-in dict class
  • How to implement methods in the ImmutableDict class to prevent modifications to the dictionary
  • How to test the ImmutableDict class to ensure it behaves as expected

🏆 Achievements

After completing this project, you will be able to:

  • Understand the concept of immutable data structures and their use cases
  • Implement an immutable dictionary in Python using the ImmutableDict class
  • Prevent modifications to the dictionary by overriding the appropriate methods
  • Test the ImmutableDict class to ensure it works as expected
