The abbreviations are the keys and the state capitals are the values. Start by entering data for any four states of your choice. Then, report this count but use a function to get the count. Use a while loop to add more abbreviations and capitals. The loop should continue until the user presses Enter when prompted for an abbreviation. Inside the while loop: If the state entered is already in the dictionary, report its capital. If it is not in the dictionary, prompt the user to enter the capital for that state and add it to the dictionary After the while loop ends: Report again the count of the number of states in the dictionary. Using another loop and the items() method, display all the state abbreviations and their capitals. In the same Python program write this code, although it has nothing to do with the states code.
