If you want Jordan's result, that's easy:
result["jordan"]
But there's no concept of "the last" entry in a dict. They don't have
an order. Do you mean "the entry with the greatest key"? That could be
written thus:
result[max(result)]
because max(result) is the string "jordan".
Does either of those make sense for what you're doing?
