Accessing Dictionary with Raw Input

Question

I am trying to have a user input a 1,2,3,4,5,6. Then have that integer align with a character name in my dictionary.

characters = {
'Stark': '1',
'Greyjoy': '2',
'California': '3',
'Whitewalkers': '4',
'Knights Watch': '5',
'Dalthraki': '6'
 }   

print 'Type 1 for Stark'
print 'Type 2 for Greyjoy'
print 'Type 3 for Lannister'
print 'Type 4 for Whitewalkers'
print 'Type 5 for Knights Watch'
print 'Type 6 for Dalthraki' 
choice = raw_input("> ")
if choice in characters:
    print 'You\'ve selected', choice 
else:
    splash()

I want to have my script print "You've selected Stark" after having the user input a 1. Thanks for your help

Answer 1

You have the dict backwards:

characters = {
'1': 'Stark',
'2': 'Greyjoy',
'3': 'California',
'4': 'Whitewalkers',
'5': 'Knights Watch',
'6': 'Dalthraki',
}   

print 'Type 1 for Stark'
print 'Type 2 for Greyjoy'
print 'Type 3 for Lannister'
print 'Type 4 for Whitewalkers'
print 'Type 5 for Knights Watch'
print 'Type 6 for Dalthraki' 
choice = raw_input("> ")
if choice in characters:
    print 'You\'ve selected', characters[choice] 
else:
    pass
