passing dictionay as argument

[David Navarro]

To be equivalent to the other one it should be:

result = authorize.Transaction.sale({'amount': 40.00, 'credit_card':
credit_card})

In this line:
result = authorize.Transaction.sale({40.00,credit_card})

You are not putting keys in the dictionary. If there are no keys Python
creates a 'set literal'. The error you are seeing is failing to create the
set (sets require all their elements to be hashable and dictionaries
aren't).

If you use the line at the beginning of the mail it should work.
