var users = {

  'fred':    { 'age': 40, 'active': false },
  'pebbles': { 'age': 1,  'active': true }
};
 
_.findKey(users, function(o) { return o.age < 40; });
// => 'barney' (iteration order is not guaranteed)
 
// The `_.matches` iteratee shorthand.
_.findKey(users, { 'age': 1, 'active': true });
// => 'pebbles'
 
// The `_.matchesProperty` iteratee shorthand.
_.findKey(users, ['active', false]);
