A different but related question: myDict = dict(zip(string.ascii_lowercase + string.ascii_uppercase, string.ascii_lowercase + string.ascii_uppercase)) >myDict {'A': 'A', 'B': 'B', 'C': 'C',...,'w': 'w', 'x': 'x', 'y': 'y', 'z': 'z'}
Why are the keys sorted from upper case to lower case? I asked for lower case first, then upper case.
