Modify the following program  to read dictionary items from a file and write the inverted dictionary to a file:

 

characters = {'Bugs':['Rabbit', 1940, 'boy'], 'Garfield': ['Cat', 1978, 'boy'], 'Tweety': ['Bird', 1942, 'girl'], 'Sandy': ['Squirrel', 1999, 'female']}

 

print("Printing the original dictionary")

 

print(characters)

 

print("")

 

def invert_dict(characters):

    inverse = dict()

    for key in characters:

        val = characters[key]

        for list_item in val:

            if list_item not in inverse:

                inverse[list_item] = [key]

            else:

                inverse[list_item].append(key)

        return inverse

 

my_invert = invert_dict(characters)

 

print("Printing the inverted dictionary")

 

print(my_invert)

 

Include the following: 
1) The input file for your original dictionary (with at least six items).
2) The Python program to read from a file, invert the dictionary, and write to a different file.
3) The output file for your inverted dictionary.

 

The answer must be explained technically.
