dict_mystery2

Language/Type: Python collections dict

Write the dictionary returned when the following function is passed each of the following pairs of dictionaries. 

def mystery(dict1, dict2):
    result = {}
    for s in dict1:
        if dict1[s] in dict2:
            result[s] = dict2[dict1[s]]
    return result

Though dictionaries store their contents in unpredictable order, for this problem, write the pairs sorted by alphabetical ordering of the keys. Write your answer in this format: {'key': 'value', 'key': 'value'}

dict1 = {"bar": 1, "baz": 2, "foo": 3, "mumble": 4}, dict2 = {1: "earth", 2: "wind", 3: "air", 4: "fire"}
dict1 = {"five": 105, "four": 104, "one": 101, "six": 106, "three": 103, "two": 102}, dict2 = {99: "uno", 101: "dos", 103: "tres", 105: "cuatro"}
dict1 = {"a": 42, "b": 9, "c": 7, "d": 15, "e": 11, "f": 24, "g": 7}, dict2 = {1: "four", 3: "score", 5: "and", 7: "seven", 9: "years", 11: "ago"}
