Python: Sort a dictionary by value

I have a dictionary like this:

A = {'Name1':34, 'Name2': 12, 'Name6': 46,....}

I want a list of keys sorted by the values, i.e. [Name2, Name1, Name6....]

Thanks!!!

Solution 1:

Use sorted with the get method as a key (dictionary keys can be accessed by iterating):

sorted(A, key=A.get)

Use sorted's key argument

sorted(d, key=d.get)

sorted(a.keys(), key=a.get)

This sorts the keys, and for each key, uses a.get to find the value to use as its sort value.
