Loads xml file data, and returns data as a dictionary.
maci.xmlloaddict -> dict[str, Any]
Basic Example of loading a xml file using default positional parameter
data = maci.xmlloaddict('mydata.xml')In this example, we simply load xml data from a file using the xmlloaddict function and pass a string of the filepath to the file as an argument to the function to load the xml data, and assign the returned data to a variable.
Access data as you normally would with a dictionary in python.
