The dict constructor

suggest change

The dict() constructor can be used to create dictionaries from keyword arguments, or from a single iterable of key-value pairs, or from a single dictionary and keyword arguments.

dict(a=1, b=2, c=3)                   # {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}
dict([('d', 4), ('e', 5), ('f', 6)])  # {'d': 4, 'e': 5, 'f': 6}
dict([('a', 1)], b=2, c=3)            # {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}
dict({'a' : 1, 'b' : 2}, c=3)         # {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}
