Remove all elements from a dictionary

Remove all elements from a dictionary

The clear method removes all elements from a dictionary. It does the remove in place and returns nothing.

d = {} # w  ww .ja  v a 2s . c  om
d['name'] = 'java2s.com' 
d['age'] = 42 
print d 
returned_value = d.clear() 
print d 
print returned_value 

The code above generates the following result.
