keys(): a view object that displays a list of all keys

keys(), takes no argument ( inputs ) .

Returns : the view object as a list of keys of dictionary.

The original dictionary remain same without any change.
my_dict={'a':'One','b':'Two','c':'Three'}
k=my_dict.keys()
print(k)
Output is here
dict_keys(['a', 'b', 'c'])

View object

The view object created by keys() method will reflect the changes in dictionary.
my_dict={'a':'One','b':'Two','c':'Three'}
k=my_dict.keys()
print(k)
my_dict['d']='Four' # one key value pair added
print(k)   # changes are reflected. 
Output
dict_keys(['a', 'b', 'c'])
dict_keys(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'])

Example for Iterating Through Keys:

Code to loop through the keys in a dictionary.
my_dict = {'a': 'One', 'b': 'Two', 'c': 'Three'}
for key in my_dict.keys():
    print(key)
Use Case: Checking If a Key Exists:
Example of checking if a key exists in a dictionary using keys().
if 'b' in my_dict.keys():
    print("Key 'b' is present")
Difference Between keys() and Direct Access:
keys() returns a view object while direct access (my_dict['key']) looks up a specific key-value pair.
