  text("New string dictionary created " +
       "with one key", 20, 20);

  // Getting the current size of the dictionary
  let currSize = stringDict.size();
  print("Printing " + currSize +
        " key-value pair(s):");

  // Printing all the values to console
  stringDict.print();
  text("Dictionary keys printed to console",
       20, 60);

  let tmpObj = {
    "Delhi": "25.87 million",
    "Shanghai": "23.48 million",

  // specifying the key and value as an object
  stringDict.create(tmpObj);
  text("New keys added to the dictionary",
       20, 100);

  // Getting the current size of the dictionary
  currSize = stringDict.size();
  print("Printing " + currSize +
        " key-value pair(s):");
