[issue32127] tutorial on dictionaries has error in example

[Toby Berla]

Thanks, Eric. (I'm new to Python.) Perhaps I should have paid closer attention 
to the description of the dictionary data structure -- 

"Performing list(d.keys()) on a dictionary returns a list of all the keys used 
in the dictionary, in arbitrary order"

-- rather than just jumping ahead to the code example. ;-)

[issue32127] tutorial on dictionaries has error in example

New submission from Toby Berla <toby.be...@gmail.com>:

in https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/datastructures.html: 

-
5.5. Dictionaries
...
Here is a small example using a dictionary:

>>>
>>> tel = {'jack': 4098, 'sape': 4139}
>>> tel['guido'] = 4127
>>> tel
{'sape': 4139, 'guido': 4127, 'jack': 4098}
-

I think the order of dictionary elements shown after 'guido' is inserted is 
wrong.

The correct order is: 
{'jack': 4098, 'sape': 4139, 'guido': 4127}
