# {} (create)

### Description

To create a dictionary of things, use `{key: value, ... }`. Put as many `key: value` pairs as you need between the brackets, separated by commas.

All operators that work on dictionaries can then perform actions on the newly created dictionary.

### Examples

```
{"Id": 7, "Color": "red"}
```

This creates a dictionary with two entries. One entry about `Id` has the value `7` and another entry about the `Color` has the value `"red"`.

An empty dictionary is also valid syntax:

```
{}
```
