'''Thing to do in this dictionary:
1. Make a better data structure(if possible) to store the entries
2. associate timers with each entry, after expiry of that timer, the entry should be deleted
3. make the size of the dictionary to store a maximum of 1000 entries, and based on FIFO we should keep the entries'''
