The variable most_recent_novel is associated with a dictionary that maps the names of novelists to their most recently published novels. Write a statement that replaces the value "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" with the value "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" for the key "J. K. Rawling". Note: we realize that we have unfortunately misspelled the author's name. We will correct this error at a future date.

    most_recent_novel["J. K. Rawling"] = "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows"

    Explanation:

    Presume that there is a dictionary with an initial mapping as follows:

    most_recent_novel = {

    "J. K. Rawling" : "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince"

    }

    The dictionary has one key, "J. K. Rawling", and its associated value "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince". To replace the value of "J. K. Rawling" key, we can just use the syntax

    dict_name[key_name] = new_value

    This will be set a new value to the key which will overwrite the previous value.
