Finds all keys in the provided dictionary that have the given value.
|
|
|
|
- Use `dictionary.items()`, a generator and `list()` to return all keys that have a value equal to `val`.
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
def find_keys(dict, val):
|
|
return list(key for key, value in dict.items() if value == val)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
ages = {
|
|
'Peter': 10,
|
|
'Isabel': 11,
|
|
'Anna': 10,
|
|
}
|
|
find_keys(ages, 10) # [ 'Peter', 'Anna' ]
|
|
```
