# here is a complex dataset - 4 Python dictionaries are in a Python list
# the dictionaries also have dictionaries INSIDE THEM: name, location, and
# picture are KEYS that each have a dictionary as their VALUE
# note there are only 4 list items, and each one is a dictionary of data
# about one (fictitious) person
