td['FOO'] = 42 td['foo'] = 32 list(td.keys()) ['FOO'] or ['foo']? Both answers are justifiable.
Note that the same question can be reasonably asked for dict itself:
d = {} d[1.0] = 'foo' d[1] = 'bar' d {1.0: 'bar'}
So, dict.setitem only replaces the value, leaving the original key in place. transformdict should probably do the same, returning 'FOO' in your example.
