There exist two ways of using dictionaries as arguments to functions.
Here we go with examples:

def first(**a):
   print "\n".join([ "%s==%s" % (k,v) for k,v in a.items()])

first(a="b",b="c",c="d")


def second(a):
   print "\n".join([ "%s==%s" % (k,v) for k,v in a.items()])

second({"a":"b", "b":"c", "c":"d"})
