getkey python code example

Example 1: how to get the key for a value in a dictionary in python

# function to return key for any value 
def get_key(val): 
    for key, value in my_dict.items(): 
         if val == value: 
             return key 
  
    return "key doesn't exist"
  
# Driver Code 
  
my_dict ={"java":100, "python":112, "c":11} 
  
print(get_key(100)) 
print(get_key(11))

Example 2: python get key module

import getkey, os
def clear():
  if os.name == "nt":
    _ = os.system('cls') #Clear function
  else:
    _ = os.system('clear')
current = "" 
while True:
  clear() #Clearing, required at beginning at end in order for algorithm to work
  print(current)
  key = getkey.key() # Gets the key
  if key == getkey.keys.BACKSPACE: # Detects if key is backspace
    current = current[:-1]
  elif key == getkey.keys.ENTER: # Detecs if key is the enter(return) key
    break
  else:
    current = current + key # Otherwise, adds on the the current variable
  clear()
clear()
print("\n\n\n You typed: " + current)

Example 3: how to get key of a particular value in dictionary python using index

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

Example 4: how to get the value of key in python

print(dict.get("key"))

Example 5: how to get the value of key in python

print(dict["key"])

Example 6: getkey python module

from getkey import getkey, keys
key = getkey()
if key == keys.UP:
  ...  # Handle the UP key
elif key == keys.DOWN:
  ...  # Handle the DOWN key
elif key == 'a':
  ...  # Handle the `a` key
elif key == 'Y':
  ...  # Handle `shift-y`
else:
  # Handle other text characters
  buffer += key
  print(buffer)
