我做了一个函数,它将在字典中查找年龄并显示匹配的名字:

dictionary = {'george' : 16, 'amber' : 19}
search_age = raw_input("Provide age")
for age in dictionary.values():
    if age == search_age:
        name = dictionary[age]
        print name

我知道如何比较和查找年龄,只是不知道如何显示这个人的名字。此外,由于第5行,我得到了一个KeyError。我知道这是不正确的,但我不知道如何让它向后搜索。


当前回答

你可以通过使用dict.keys(), dict.values()和list.index()方法来获取key,参见下面的代码示例:

names_dict = {'george':16,'amber':19}
search_age = int(raw_input("Provide age"))
key = names_dict.keys()[names_dict.values().index(search_age)]

其他回答

mydict = {'george': 16, 'amber': 19}
print mydict.keys()[mydict.values().index(16)]  # Prints george

或者在Python 3.x中:

mydict = {'george': 16, 'amber': 19}
print(list(mydict.keys())[list(mydict.values()).index(16)])  # Prints george

基本上,它将字典的值分离到一个列表中,找到所拥有值的位置,并在该位置获取键。

更多关于Python 3中的keys()和.values():如何从dict获取值列表?

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!

以下是我的看法。这对于显示多个结果很有好处,以防您需要一个结果。所以我也添加了这个列表

myList = {'george':16,'amber':19, 'rachel':19, 
           'david':15 }                         #Setting the dictionary
result=[]                                       #Making ready of the result list
search_age = int(input('Enter age '))

for keywords in myList.keys():
    if myList[keywords] ==search_age:
    result.append(keywords)                    #This part, we are making list of results

for res in result:                             #We are now printing the results
    print(res)

就是这样……

试试下面的一行代码来反转字典:

reversed_dictionary = dict(map(reversed, dictionary.items()))

下面是一个在python2和python3中都适用的解决方案:

dict((v, k) for k, v in list.items())[search_age]

直到[search_age]的部分构造反向字典(其中值是键,反之亦然)。 你可以创建一个helper方法来缓存这个反向字典,就像这样:

def find_name(age, _rev_lookup=dict((v, k) for k, v in ages_by_name.items())):
    return _rev_lookup[age]

或者更一般的是一个工厂,它会为你的一个或多个列表创建一个按年龄查找的方法

def create_name_finder(ages_by_name):
    names_by_age = dict((v, k) for k, v in ages_by_name.items())
    def find_name(age):
      return names_by_age[age]

所以你可以这样做:

find_teen_by_age = create_name_finder({'george':16,'amber':19})
...
find_teen_by_age(search_age)

注意,我将list重命名为ages_by_name,因为前者是预定义的类型。
