max dict value code example

Example 1: max of a dict

dic={0: 1.4984074067880424, 1: 1.0984074067880423, 2: 1.8984074067880425, 3: 2.2984074067880425, 4: 2.2984074067880425}
max_value = max(dic.values())  # maximum value
max_keys = [k for k, v in dic.items() if v == max_value] # getting all keys containing the `maximum`

print(max_value, max_keys)

Example 2: get max n values in dict py

import heapq
from operator import itemgetter

n = 3

items = {'a': 7, 'b': 12, 'c': 9, 'd': 0, 'e': 24, 'f': 10, 'g': 24}

topitems = heapq.nlargest(n, items.items(), key=itemgetter(1))  # Use .iteritems() on Py2
topitemsasdict = dict(topitems)
