I am a beginner in data science. So I am facing problem understanding some concepts.

What is the difference between the following codes. Why we need to convert data variable to df variable

data = {‘Fruits’: [‘BANANA AND BLUEBERRY’,’APPLE AND CHERRY’,’MANGO AND PINEAPPLE’,’WATERMELON AND PAPAYA’,’PEAR AND COCONUT’],’Price’: [2.5,3,5.5,4.5,4]}

df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns = [‘Fruits’, ‘Price’])

I am trying to understand the difference between Data Frame and Dictionary.
