.. c:function:: int PyDict_Update(PyObject *a, PyObject *b)
This is the same as ``PyDict_Merge(a, b, 1)`` in C, or ``a.update(b)`` in
Python. Return ``0`` on success or ``-1`` if an exception was raised.
This is the same as ``PyDict_Merge(a, b, 1)`` in C, and is similar to
``a.update(b)`` in Python except that :c:func:`PyDict_Update` doesn't fall
back to the iterating over a sequence of key value pairs if the second
argument has no "keys" attribute. Return ``0`` on success or ``-1`` if an
exception was raised.
