 Download the script and save it to your Desktop. Be sure to save it as a  file. Open the script in your text editor. Read through the script. Think about these questions:  Why do we use a dictionary to store the states and capitals? What is the purpose of the variable i in the for loop? What is the purpose of the input</tt> function?</li> Think about one way that you could extend the script to make it more useful. How would you make that change in code?</li> </ul> </li> </ol>
