key = next((k for k in my_dict if my_dict[k] == val), None)

我试着阅读尽可能多的答案，以防止给出重复的答案。然而，如果你正在处理一个包含在列表中的值的字典，并且如果你想获得具有特定元素的键，你可以这样做:

d = {'Adams': [18, 29, 30],
     'Allen': [9, 27],
     'Anderson': [24, 26],
     'Bailey': [7, 30],
     'Baker': [31, 7, 10, 19],
     'Barnes': [22, 31, 10, 21],
     'Bell': [2, 24, 17, 26]}

现在让我们找到值为24的名称。

for key in d.keys():    
    if 24 in d[key]:
        print(key)

这也适用于多个值。

key = next((k for k in my_dict if my_dict[k] == val), None)

你需要使用字典和字典的倒序。这意味着您需要另一种数据结构。如果你使用的是python 3，则使用enum模块;如果你使用的是python 2.7，则使用为python 2反向移植的enum34模块。

例子:

from enum import Enum

class Color(Enum): 
    red = 1 
    green = 2 
    blue = 3

>>> print(Color.red) 
Color.red

>>> print(repr(Color.red)) 
<color.red: 1=""> 

>>> type(Color.red) 
<enum 'color'=""> 
>>> isinstance(Color.green, Color) 
True 

>>> member = Color.red 
>>> member.name 
'red' 
>>> member.value 
1 

以下是我对这个问题的看法。：） 我刚刚开始学习Python，所以我称之为:

“初学者可以理解的”解决方案。

#Code without comments.

list1 = {'george':16,'amber':19, 'Garry':19}
search_age = raw_input("Provide age: ")
print
search_age = int(search_age)

listByAge = {}

for name, age in list1.items():
    if age == search_age:
        age = str(age)
        results = name + " " +age
        print results

        age2 = int(age)
        listByAge[name] = listByAge.get(name,0)+age2

print
print listByAge

.

#Code with comments.
#I've added another name with the same age to the list.
list1 = {'george':16,'amber':19, 'Garry':19}
#Original code.
search_age = raw_input("Provide age: ")
print
#Because raw_input gives a string, we need to convert it to int,
#so we can search the dictionary list with it.
search_age = int(search_age)

#Here we define another empty dictionary, to store the results in a more 
#permanent way.
listByAge = {}

#We use double variable iteration, so we get both the name and age 
#on each run of the loop.
for name, age in list1.items():
    #Here we check if the User Defined age = the age parameter 
    #for this run of the loop.
    if age == search_age:
        #Here we convert Age back to string, because we will concatenate it 
        #with the person's name. 
        age = str(age)
        #Here we concatenate.
        results = name + " " +age
        #If you want just the names and ages displayed you can delete
        #the code after "print results". If you want them stored, don't...
        print results

        #Here we create a second variable that uses the value of
        #the age for the current person in the list.
        #For example if "Anna" is "10", age2 = 10,
        #integer value which we can use in addition.
        age2 = int(age)
        #Here we use the method that checks or creates values in dictionaries.
        #We create a new entry for each name that matches the User Defined Age
        #with default value of 0, and then we add the value from age2.
        listByAge[name] = listByAge.get(name,0)+age2

#Here we print the new dictionary with the users with User Defined Age.
print
print listByAge

.

Provide age: 19

amber 19
Garry 19

{'amber': 19, 'Garry': 19}

Execution Successful!

这是一个真正的“可逆字典”，基于Adam Acosta的解决方案，但强制val-to-key调用是唯一的，容易从值返回键:

from collections import UserDict


class ReversibleDict(UserDict):
    def __init__(self, enforce_unique=True, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.val_to_keys = {}
        self.check_val = self.check_unique if enforce_unique else lambda x: x

    def __setitem__(self, key, value):
        self.check_val(value)
        super().__setitem__(key, value)
        self.val_to_keys[value] = key

    def __call__(self, value):
        return self.val_to_keys[value]

    def check_unique(self, value):
        assert value not in self.val_to_keys, f"Non unique value '{value}'"
        return value

如果你想强制字典值的唯一性，确保set enforce_unique=True。从值中获取键只需做rev_dict(value)，从键中调用值只需像往常一样做dict['key']，这里是一个用法示例:

rev_dict = ReversibleDict(enforce_unique=True)
rev_dict["a"] = 1
rev_dict["b"] = 2
rev_dict["c"] = 3
print("full dictinoary is: ", rev_dict)
print("value for key 'b' is: ", rev_dict["b"])
print("key for value '2' is: ", rev_dict(2))
print("tring to set another key with the same value results in error: ")
rev_dict["d"] = 1
