1. Which way do you prefer - getting input values as a list (e.g. values[0]) or as a dictionary (e.g. values["username"])?


2. Create a GUI application that asks me for my favourite colour, then says "I love colour too!", where colour is the colour that I entered. For example, when your program runs, you might type in "blue", to which the computer will respond "I love blue too!"
