How to store key value pairs

Question

I want to store key-value pairs, but I don't know how to do it.

What I want to achieve is a variable that would store the different value pairs.

What I would want is something like this:

dic = {}
valuepair = (2,3), "cell1"

Each value pair is unique and I would want to be able to do something like this:

dic[(2,3)] = "cell1"
dic["cell1"] = (2,3)

Is there a way to achieve something like that for many different unique value pairs?

Answer 1

If you ask if you can use a tuple as a key - yes, for example:

dic[(2,3)] = "cell1"

print(dic[(2,3)]) 

would show cell1

or create an inverse dict like this:

inverse_d = {v:k for key, value in d}
