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' ]
```
