the last line of the function should be:

def get_highest(D):
    def kmax(a,b):
        if D.get(a)<D.get(b): return b
        return a
    return reduce(kmax,D,None)

Because now it gives a traceback if called with for example [1] as
input. Lose ambiguity only as much as necessary, anything more would
be aji-keshi :-)
