Exercise 39 - dictionary

# create a mapping of state to abbreviation

    'Oregon': 'OR',
    'Florida': 'FL',
    'California': 'CA',
    'New York': 'NY',

# add some more cities
cities['NY'] = 'New York'
cities['OR'] = 'Portland'

# print out some cities
print('-' * 10)
print("NY State has: ", cities['NY'])
print("OR State has: ", cities['OR'])

# print some states
print('-' * 10)
print("Michigan's abbreviation is: ", states['Michigan'])
print("Florida's abbreviation is: ", states['Florida'])

# do it by using the state then cities dict
print('-' * 10)
print("Michigan has: ", cities[states['Michigan']])
print("Florida has: ", cities[states['Florida']])

# print every state abbreviation
print('-' * 10)
for state, abbrev in states.items():
    print("%s is abbreviated %s" % (state, abbrev))

# print every city in state
print('-' * 10)
for abbrev, city in cities.items():
    print("%s has the city %s" % (abbrev, city))

# do both at the same time

for state, abbrev in states.items():
    print("%s state is abbreviated %s and had city %s" % (
              state, abbrev, cities[abbrev]))

# safely get an abbreviation by state that might not be there
