Membership
The membership operator in checks whether a key is present in the dictionary. It returns True if the key exists, else it returns False:

>>> 'Chetan' in marks
True
The not in operator does the opposite — it returns True if the key is not present in the dictionary, else it returns False:

>>> 'Chetan' not in marks
