You are tasked with keeping track of a customer’s addresses in your database.

However, customer’s addresses change whenever they move. We want to keep track of their moving history as well as the person that moves in afterwards.

How would you create or modify a schema to keep track of these address changes?

Create a schema to keep track of customer address changes

You’re tasked with designing a database system for Swipe Inc., a company that manages payments for software developers. Swipe manages a set of APIs so developers can abstract payment processes for their web service and transfer control over to Swipe’s APIs to manage payment security and finance handling (contacting credit card providers, etc.)

Your database system should store a collection of API keys with their attributes, as shown in the example below:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>{
 &#34;API_key&#34;:{
 &#34;Transaction_list&#34;:{
 &#34;User_ID&#34;:{
 &#34;Name&#34;:{
 &#34;f_name&#34;: 
 &#34;l_name&#34;: 
 }
 &#34;Card_Details&#34;:{
 &#34;Bank&#34;:
 &#34;Card_No&#34;:
 &#34;Expiry&#34;:
 &#34;CV&#34;:
 } 
 }
 }
 &#34;Curr_balance&#34;:
 }
}
</code></pre>

What are the functional and non-functional requirements for this database?

You are given a dictionary with a key-value of <code>{string: number}</code> where values in the dictionary could be duplicates. You are required to extract the unique values from the dictionary where the value occurred only once.

Return a list of values where they occur only once.

Note: You can return the values in any order.

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>dictionary = {&#34;key1&#34;: 1, &#34;key2&#34;: 1, &#34;key3&#34;: 7, &#34;key4&#34;: 3, &#34;key5&#34;: 4, &#34;key6&#34;: 7}
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>find_unique_values(dictionary) -&gt; [3,4]

#Only 3 and 4 occurred once.
