[Tutor] Dictionary Question

[bharath ks]

Hello,

Using iteritems would be much easier approach
Something like this
mydic = {"A": "Apple", "B": "Banana"}
for key, value in mydic.iteritems():    if value == "Apple":        print key








 Thanks & BR, Bharath Shetty

 Thank you all for your responses. 
A quick follow up, what is the best way to make dictionary requests case in-sensitive? For example, "Apple and "apple" should bring back the same dictionary response. Thank you.

I think this would depend on how big the data set is and how often you want to look things up.
Two other Solutions: 
Create a class which internally manages two dictionaries.
If things are really big create a database using for example sqlite.
