7,225 PointsCreate a dictionary with the following key value pairs: 1) key: 'name', value: '', 2) key: 'topic', value: 'python'. Assign this dictionary to a variable called student.

The value of name should be 2. Not sure were your value came from. What got me up on this when i was doing it was, i kept putting "2" and its just 2. Don't let it trip you up.

mydictionary = { 'key1' : 'value1', 'key2' : 'value2' }
Also check your values against what the instructions state. Case matters in task 2.
