First I'd like to mention that I am completely new to Python and I've found it a bit difficult to transition from C++. I apologize if my question comes off as elementary.
I have a class for 'songs' which I have initialized as following. It takes in data from a file that contains a song's ID, name, genre etc. all separated by ::.
def __init__(self):
self.song_names = dict()
self.song_genres = dict()
def load_songs(self, song_id):
f = open(song_id)
for line in f:
line = line.rstrip()
component = line.split("::")
sid = components[0]
same= components[1]
sgenre=components[2]
self.song_names[mid] = sname
self.song_genres[mid] = sgenre
f.close()
The program also takes in data from a file with 'users' information, separated as
UserID::Gender::Age::Occupation::Zip etc. and a file with 'ratings'.
I would I implement a function like def set_song(sid, list((title,genres)))
and something like delete_song(sid) ?
I'm going to have to wind up doing a ton more other functions, but if someone could help me with those two - at least to have a better idea of structure and syntax - handling the others should be easier.

Why not just inherit from dict and use its interface? That way you can use Python's standard mapping operations instead of rolling your own:
class Songs(dict):
def load(self, song_id):
with open(song_id, 'r') as f:
for line in f:
sid, name, genre = line.rstrip().split('::')[:3]
self[sid] = [name, genre]
mysongs = Songs()
mysongs.load('barnes_and_barnes__fish_heads')
mysongs['barnes_and_barnes__fish_heads'] = ['roly poly', 'strange'] # set
del mysongs['barnes_and_barnes__fish_heads'] # delete
