I'm pretty new to Python's dictionaries, but I had a need for a function that would find the values in a dict that have more than one key each. It took me several hours to write. See <http://py77.python.pastebin.com/f397582d8>. Seems to do the job, both with the example shown, and with the dict of colors at <http://py77.python.pastebin.com/f796752ff>.

But I can't believe the function needs to be so complex. And also, I suppose I've reinvented the wheel (again). Please instruct me.

My apologies in advance to Kent for not using a single list comprehension.

Thanks,

Dick Moores
