In 3.2.2 in IDLE I have this dictionary entry:Namath = {"first_name": "Joe", "last_name": "Namath", "phone": "212-222-7777",\ "email": "joe.nam...@gmail.com", "stadium": "Shea Stadium"} when I print it: print(Namath) I get: {'phone': '212-222-7777', 'first_name': 'Joe', 'last_name': 'Namath', 'email': 'joe.nam...@gmail.com', 'stadium': 'Shea Stadium'} Why is it out of order?
Cos plain old dicts have no order, but this can be done with http://docs.python.org/library/collections.html#ordereddict-objects
