How to use ng-repeat for dictionaries in AngularJs?

I know that we can easily use ng-repeat for json objects or arrays like:

<div ng-repeat="user in users"></div>

but how can we use the ng-repeat for dictionaries, for example:

var users = null;
users["182982"] = "{...json-object...}";
users["198784"] = "{...json-object...}";
users["119827"] = "{...json-object...}";

I want to use that with users dictionary:

<div ng-repeat="user in users"></div>

Is it possible?. If yes, how can I do it in AngularJs?

Example for my question: In C# we define dictionaries like:

Dictionary<key,value> dict = new Dictionary<key,value>();

//and then we can search for values, without knowing the keys
foreach(var val in dict.Values)
{
}

Is there a build-in function that returns the values from a dictionary like in c#?

You can use

<li ng-repeat="(name, age) in items">{{name}}: {{age}}</li>

See ngRepeat documentation. Example: http://jsfiddle.net/WRtqV/1/
