Answer 1

If you want to add values from the second to the first, you can do it like this:

first = {'id': 1, 'age': 23}
second = {'id': 4, 'out': 100}

for k in second:
    if k in first:
        first[k] += second[k]
    else:
        first[k] = second[k]
print first

The above will output:

{'age': 23, 'id': 5, 'out': 100}
