Basic Example of loading a xml string using default positional parameter

data = maci.xmlloadstrdict('<mydata><data1>one</data1></mydata>')

In this example, we simply load xml data from a string using the xmlloadstrdict function and pass a string 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.

Note: All values in xml data are returned as strings.
