Calculate the Sum of All Numeric Values in a Dictionary
In Python, you can calculate the sum of all numeric values in a dictionary by iterating through the dictionary and summing its values.
Example:
def returnSum(myDict):
# Initialize sum to 0
sum = 0
# Iterate through the dictionary
for i in myDict:
sum = sum + myDict[i]
return sum
# Define a dictionary with numeric values
dict = {'a': 100, 'b': 200, 'c': 300}
# Print the sum of values
print("Sum:", returnSum(dict))Output:
Sum: 600
This example defines a dictionary with three key-value pairs, sums the values, and returns the total sum.
