Learn how to effectively reduce dictionaries in asynchronous Python applications using various techniques. This guide covers methods to optimize dictionary management in concurrent code execution.

import asyncio
from collections import defaultdict

async def reduce_dicts(dicts):
    result = defaultdict(int)
    for d in dicts:
        for key, value in d.items():
            result[key] += value
    return dict(result)

async def main():
    dicts = [{'a': 1, 'b': 2}, {'a': 3, 'c': 5}, {'b': 4}]
    reduced_dict = await reduce_dicts(dicts)
    print(reduced_dict)

asyncio.run(main())
