title: Python dictionary SyntaxError
body: <p>I'm moving to Python from PHP and I seem to be stuck in my first hour of learning Python.</p>
  
  <p>This seems to be such a basic question that I'm having trouble finding an answer - so please forgive me.</p>
  
  <p>When I try to create a dictionary I enter:</p>
  
  <pre><code>numbers = ('Bob':'322', 'Mary':'110', 'Joe':'839')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get the error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  File "&lt;stdin&gt;", line 1
      numbers = ('Bob':'322', 'Mary':'110', 'Joe':'839')
                      ^
  SyntaxError: invalid syntax
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried this in both the command line and in IDLE and the same error appears. What am I doing wrong? I really can't see it. Again sorry for low level of this question.</p>
