How to insert user input in a dictionairy - python3

Question

I was supposed to insert new items to a dictionary, and the new items would be decided by the user input. I have tried three differents things (the ones marked as comments), but none is working. Does anyone know how to fix it?

butikk = {"melk": 14.9, "broed": 24.9, "yoghurt": 12.9, "pizza": 39.9}
print(butikk)

ny_vare = str(input("Skriv inn en matvare og prisen: "))
ny_vare_pris = float(input("Hvor mye koster varen? "))

ny_vare1 = str(input("Skriv inn en matvare: "))
ny_vare1_pris = float(input("Hvor mye koster varen? ")

#butikk.append(ny_vare)
#butikk.append(ny_vare1)

#butikk[ny_vare] = ny_vare_pris
#butikk[ny_vare1] = ny_vare1_pris

#butikk.update(ny_vare : ny_vare_pris)
#butikk.update(ny_vare1 : ny_vare1_pris)

print(butikk)

Answer 1

Okay, so your problem is solved. To be noted, you had done 2 things wrong here.

First , you missed a bracket on line 8 and

Second one is that you should apply {} to update the dictionary.

Let me show you the correct code:

butikk = {
    "melk": 14.9,
    "broed": 24.9,
    "yoghurt": 12.9,
    "pizza": 39.9
}

ny_vare = input("Skriv inn en matvare og prisen: ")
ny_vare_pris = float(input("Hvor mye koster varen? "))
ny_vare1 = input("Skriv inn en matvare: ")
ny_vare1_pris = float(input("Hvor mye koster varen? "))

butikk.update({ny_vare: ny_vare_pris})
butikk.update({ny_vare1: ny_vare1_pris})

print(butikk)

Now you will get your desired output.
