I'm working through chapter 3 on variables. In the section on dictionaries (page 39-40 specifically), you define a dictionary variable menu_specials at one time by putting in pairs for keys breakfast, lunch and dinner and their values within a set of curly braces. But, when you run the command print(menu_specials), the dictionary is printed out with lunch first and then breakfast and then dinner. Why does it do that? I can see that it's not in order of entry, nor does it seem to be in order by key (alphabetically) nor by value, so what's up?

Thank you!

Hello, I'm having the same problem, is there anyone who can explain why this happens

Greetings, I found the answer to your question: you need not worry, dictionaries unlike tuples and lists are just not ordered, hope this answer your question.
