Introduction: Python Dictionary values() Method

This method is used to return a view object having a list of all the values(not keys) of specified Python dictionary.

Syntax of values() Method

dictionaryName.values()

• Python dictionary values method does not take any arguments.
• It returns a view object having a list of all the values(not keys) of dictionary.

Example 1: Get All Values from Python Dictionary

dictItems={'color':'green','number':2345,'place':'Havelian'} 
print(dictItems.values())

Output

dict_values(['green', 2345, 'Havelian'])

As you can see here, all the values(from key, value pairs of dictionary) are returned.

Example 2: values() Method Response to Updated Dictionary

dictItems={'color':'green','number':2345,'place':'Havelian'} 
values=dictItems.values()
print(values)
dictItems['nearBy']='Abbottabad' // add item to dictionary
print(values)

Output

dict_values(['green', 2345, 'Havelian'])      // before updating dictionary
dict_values(['green', 2345, 'Havelian', 'Abbottabad'])   //  after updating dictionary

dictItems={'color':'green','place':'Havelian'} 
returnedValue=dictItems.values()
print(returnedValue)

dict_values(['green', 'Havelian'])
