|

```
|
||||
* So how can we update the key to `5` (instead of `5.0`)? We can't actually do this update in place, but what we can do is first delete the key (`del some_dict[5.0]`), and then set it (`some_dict[5]`) to get the integer `5` as the key instead of floating `5.0`, though this should be needed in rare cases.
|
||||
|
||||
* How did Python found `5` in a dictionary containing `5.0`? Python does this in constant time without having to scan through every item by using hash functions. When Python looks up a key `foo` in a dict, it first computes `hash(foo)` (which runs in constant-time). Since in Python it is required that objects that compare equal also have the same hash value ([docs](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#object.__hash__) here), `5`, `5.0`, and `5 + 0j` have the same hash value.
