Similarity: Both List and Dictionary are mutable datatypes.
Dissimilarity: List is a sequential data type i.e. they are indexed.
Dictionary is a mapping datatype. It consists of key: value pair.
Eg: L =[1,2,3,4,5] is a list
D= {1:”Ajay”,2:”Prashant,4:”Himani”} is a dictionary where 1,2,4 are keys and “Ajay”,Prashant,”Himani” are their corresponding values.
