The error “TypeError: get() takes no keyword arguments” means you’re trying to use keyword arguments (like `key=”mykey”`) with the `get()` method of a dictionary, which doesn’t support them.
The `get()` method is designed to be simple and efficient for retrieving values from a dictionary. It takes one required argument:
* **key**: The key you want to look up in the dictionary.
It also accepts an optional argument:
* **default**: The value to return if the key is not found in the dictionary. If omitted, it defaults to `None`.
Here’s an example:
“`python
my_dict = {“name”: “Alice”, “age”: 30}
# Get the value for key “name”
name = my_dict.get(“name”) # Returns “Alice”
# Get the value for key “city” (which doesn’t exist)
city = my_dict.get(“city”) # Returns None
# Get the value for key “city” with a default value
city = my_dict.get(“city”, “Unknown”) # Returns “Unknown”
“`
instead of using keyword arguments, simply pass the key as the first argument to the `get()` method. [[1](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24463202/typeerror-get-takes-no-keyword-arguments)]
