Implementing a simple key-value storage system is a great way to practice data handling and basic file operations in Python. Here’s a detailed approach including game steps, input ideas, and additional features:

Game Steps

1. Introduction: Provide an introduction explaining what a key-value storage system is and its uses.
2. Menu Options: Present a menu with options to add, retrieve, update, and delete key-value pairs.
3. User Interaction: Allow the user to interact with the system based on their choice from the menu.
4. Perform Operations: Implement functionality to perform the chosen operations (add, retrieve, update, delete).
5. Display Results: Show the results of the operations (e.g., value retrieved or confirmation of deletion).
6. Repeat or Exit: Allow the user to perform additional operations or exit the program.

Input Ideas

1. Key Input: Allow the user to enter a key for operations. Ensure that keys are unique for storage operations.
2. Value Input: Prompt the user to enter a value associated with a key. Values can be strings or numbers.
3. Operation Choice: Present options to add, retrieve, update, or delete key-value pairs.
4. File Handling: Optionally, allow users to specify a file to save and load the key-value pairs.
5. Validation: Ensure that keys and values are entered correctly and handle any errors (e.g., missing keys).

Additional Features

1. Persistent Storage: Save key-value pairs to a file (e.g., JSON or CSV) and load them on program startup.
2. Data Validation: Implement checks to validate the format of keys and values.
3. GUI Interface: Create a graphical user interface using Tkinter or another library for a more user-friendly experience.
4. Search Functionality: Add a feature to search for keys or values based on user input.
5. Data Backup: Implement a backup system to periodically save the key-value pairs.
6. Data Encryption: Encrypt the stored data for security purposes.
7. Command-Line Arguments: Allow users to perform operations via command-line arguments.
8. Multi-key Operations: Support operations on multiple keys at once (e.g., batch updates).
9. Undo Feature: Implement an undo feature to revert the last operation.
10. User Authentication: Add user authentication to secure access to the key-value storage system.
