dict.modify(key,value)

The line dict.modify(key, value) will result in an error because the dict object in Python does not have a modify method.

If you want to update or change the value associated with a key in a dictionary, you typically use the assignment operation, like this:

dict[key] = value

Alternatively, if you're using a method, the update method might achieve what you're looking for:

dict.update({key: value})

Make sure to check the intended functionality because modify is not part of the Python dictionary object API.
