Get key by value in dictionary

There is none. dict is not intended to be used this way.

dictionary = {'george': 16, 'amber': 19}
search_age = input("Provide age")
for name, age in dictionary.items():  # for name, age in dictionary.iteritems():  (for Python 2.x)
    if age == search_age:
        print(name)
