 This only made sense when you expected the dict to have the key almost all the
 time.  If that wasn't the case, you coded it like this::
 
-   if mydict.has_key(key):

 For this specific case, you could also use ``value = dict.setdefault(key,
 getvalue(key))``, but only if the ``getvalue()`` call is cheap enough because it
