In this dictionary unpacking example, we know that there are three keys in the 'teacher' dictionary. If we provide a dictionary with 4 keys and call the print_teacher function, python will throw a TypeError.
Is there a way for us to still use unpacking to print the values? What if we don't know the length of the dictionary?
