Verifying DataTypes

In the age of data we have access to more attributes than we ever had before. To handle all of them we will build a lot of automation but at a minimum requires that their datatypes be correct. In this exercise we will validate a dictionary of attributes and their datatypes to see if they are correct. This dictionary is stored in the variable validation_dict and is available in your workspace.

Instruções do exercício

Using df create a list of attribute and datatype tuples with dtypes called actual_dtypes_list.
Iterate through actual_dtypes_list, checking if the column names exist in the dictionary of expected dtypes validation_dict.
For the keys that exist in the dictionary, check their dtypes and print those that match.
