Python | Get key with maximum value in Dictionary

Given a dictionary, the task is to find the key having the maximum value.

Examples :

Input : {'Audi':100, 'BMW':1292, 'Jaguar': 210000, 'Hyundai' : 88}
Output : Jaguar

Input:  {'Geeks':1900, 'for':1292, 'geek' : 88}
Output:  Geeks

Method #1: Using max() function

# Python code to find key with Maximum value in Dictionary 
   
# Dictionary Initialization 
Tv = {'BreakingBad':100, 'GameOfThrones':1292, 'TMKUC' : 88} 
  
Keymax = max(Tv, key=Tv.get) 
print(Keymax) 

Output:

GameOfThrones

Method 2: Using max() with lamda function

# Python code to find key with Maximum value in Dictionary 
   
# Dictionary Initialization 
Tv = {'BreakingBad':100, 'GameOfThrones':1292, 'TMKUC' : 88} 
  
Keymax = max(Tv, key= lambda x: Tv[x]) 
print(Keymax) 

Output:

GameOfThrones

Method 3: Using operator

# Python code to find key with  
# Maximum value in Dictionary 
import operator 
  
# Dictionary Initialization 
Car = {'Audi':100, 'BMW':1292, 'Jaguar': 210000, 'Hyundai' : 88} 
  
# Getting max item 
keyMax = max(Car.items(), key = operator.itemgetter(1))[0] 
print(keyMax) 

Output:

Jaguar

Method 4:

# Python code to find key with Maximum value in Dictionary 
  
# Dictionary Initialization 
Company = {'GFG':10000, 'Hashd':2292, 'Infy': 200} 
  
# taking list of car values in v 
v = list(Company.values()) 
  
# taking list of car keys in v 
k = list(Company.keys()) 
  
print(k[v.index(max(v))]) 

Output:

GFG
