First, you have to tell us what you want to happen when the two
dictionaries have overlapping keys.  Let's say I have:

d1 = {1: 'one', 2: 'two'}
d2 = {1: 'uno', 3: 'tres'}

if I do d3 = addDicts (d1, d2), what do you want d3 to have in it?
More specifically, what do you want the value of d3[1] to be?
