Frozendict is an immutable wrapper around dictionaries that implements the complete mapping interface. It can be used as a drop-in replacement for dictionaries where immutability is desired.

The frozendict constructor mimics dict, and all of the expected interfaces (iter, len, repr, hash, getitem) are provided. Note that a frozendict does not guarantee the immutability of its values, so the utility of hash method is restricted by usage.
