dict.keys() and dict.values() are always the same order, is it?

Hello!

Is it assured the following statement is always True?
If it is always True, in which version, python2.x or python3.x?

a = dict() ....
assert(a.values == [a[k] for k in a.keys()])

--> ?

I believe its an implementation detail and should not be relied on. If
you need consistent ordering, use an OrderedDict[1] or sort() the
lists beforehand.
