Storing Python dictionaries with Redis
In addition to storing simple key-value pairs, you can store more complex Python data types, such as dictionaries. In this final exercise with Redis, you'll practice storing and retrieving Python dictionaries with the help of the redis module in Python.
Similar to before, a connection object has been created and stored in the variable redis_conn. Good luck!

“Introduction to NoSQL”
Exercise instructions
- Using the
redis_connvariable, store the dictionarylondon_weather_mappingto the"london_weather"key. - Retrieve and print the
"london_weather"key-value pair using theredis_connvariable and the appropriate method.
Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
# Create a dictionary containing weather data
london_weather_mapping = {
"temperature": 42,
"humidity": 88,
"visibility": "low"
}
# Store the london_weather key-value pair
____.____(
"____",
mapping=____
)
# Retrieve and print the london_weather key-value pair
print(____.____("____"))
