Dictionary functions

Question

You are making a phonebook. The contacts are stored in a dictionary, where the key is the name and the value is a list, representing the number and the email of the contact.
You need to implement search: take the name of the contact as input and output the email.
If the contact is not found, output "Not found".
contacts = {
"David": ["123-321-88", "[email protected]"],
"James": ["241-879-093", "[email protected]"],
"Bob": ["987-004-322", "[email protected]"],
"Amy": ["340-999-213", "[email protected]"]
}
Note, that the email is the second element of the list.
please provide the solution, im not getting the logic.

Answer 1

If we return "Not found" as a list item then we can grab it with -1 index:
contacts = {
"David": ["123-321-88", "[email protected]"],
"James": ["241-879-093", "[email protected]"],
"Bob": ["987-004-322", "[email protected]"],
"Amy": ["340-999-213", "[email protected]"]
}
#your code goes here
name=input()
print(contacts.get(name,["Not found"])[-1])

Answer 2

inputName = input("")
if inputName in contacts: print(contacts[inputName][1])
elif inputName not in contacts: print('Not found')

Answer 3

result = contacts.get(input(), "Not found")
if result != "Not found":
result = result[1]
print(result)
I'm sure there is a better implementation, but here is one way.. ^

name = input()
x = contacts.get(name, "Not found")
if x == "Not found":
