Adds a key-value pair to the collection. This implementation calls the Add method with the Key and Value from the item.

Adds a new key and value to the dictionary. If the dictionary already contains a key equal to the passed key, then an ArgumentException is thrown

Adds multiple key-value pairs to a dictionary. If a key exists in both the current instance and dictionaryToAdd, then the value is updated with the value from keysAndValues> (no exception is thrown). Since IDictionary<TKey,TValue> inherits from IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<TKey,TValue>>, this method can be used to merge one dictionary into another.

Provides a read-only view of this dictionary. The returned IDictionary<TKey,TValue> provides a view of the dictionary that prevents modifications to the dictionary. Use the method to provide access to the dictionary without allowing changes. Since the returned object is just a view, changes to the dictionary will be reflected in the view.

Removes all keys and values from the dictionary.

Makes a shallow clone of this dictionary; i.e., if keys or values of the dictionary are reference types, then they are not cloned. If TKey or TValue is a value type, then each element is copied as if by simple assignment.

Makes a deep clone of this dictionary. A new dictionary is created with a clone of each entry of this dictionary, by calling ICloneable.Clone on each element. If TKey or TValue is a value type, then each element is copied as if by simple assignment.

Determines if a dictionary contains a given KeyValuePair. This implementation checks to see if the dictionary contains the given key, and if the value associated with the key is equal to (via object.Equals) the value.

Determines if this dictionary contains a key equal to key. The dictionary is not changed.

Convert this collection of items by applying a delegate to each item in the collection. The resulting enumeration contains the result of applying converter to each item in this collection, in order.

Copies all the items in the collection into an array. Implemented by using the enumerator returned from GetEnumerator to get all the items and copy them to the provided array.

Counts the number of items in the collection that satisfy the condition defined by predicate.

Determines if the collection contains any item that satisfies the condition defined by predicate.

Enumerates the items in the collection that satisfy the condition defined by predicate.

Performs the specified action on each item in this collection.

Returns an enumerator that enumerates all the entries in the dictionary. Each entry is returned as a KeyValuePair<TKey,TValue>. The entries are enumerated in the sorted order of the keys.

Finds a key in the dictionary. If the dictionary already contains a key equal to the passed key, then the existing value is returned via value. If the dictionary doesn't contain that key, then value is associated with that key.

Returns a collection that can be used for enumerating some of the keys and values in the collection. Only keys that are greater than from and less than to are included. The keys are enumerated in sorted order. Keys equal to the end points of the range can be included or excluded depending on the fromInclusive and toInclusive parameters.

Returns a collection that can be used for enumerating some of the keys and values in the collection. Only keys that are greater than (and optionally, equal to) from are included. The keys are enumerated in sorted order. Keys equal to from can be included or excluded depending on the fromInclusive parameter.

Returns a collection that can be used for enumerating some of the keys and values in the collection. Only items that are less than (and optionally, equal to) to are included. The items are enumerated in sorted order. Items equal to to can be included or excluded depending on the toInclusive parameter.

Determines if a dictionary contains a given KeyValuePair, and if so, removes it. This implementation checks to see if the dictionary contains the given key, and if the value associated with the key is equal to (via object.Equals) the value. If so, the key-value pair is removed.

Removes the key (and associated value) from the collection that is equal to the passed in key. If no key in the dictionary is equal to the passed key, false is returned and the dictionary is unchanged.

Removes all the items in the collection that satisfy the condition defined by predicate.

Removes all the keys found in another collection (such as an array or List<TKey>). Each key in keyCollectionToRemove is removed from the dictionary. Keys that are not present are ignored.

Changes the value associated with a given key. If the dictionary does not contain a key equal to the passed key, then an ArgumentException is thrown.

Returns a View collection that can be used for enumerating the keys and values in the collection in reversed order.

Creates an array of the correct size, and copies all the items in the collection into the array, by calling CopyTo.

Shows the string representation of the dictionary. The string representation contains a list of the mappings in the dictionary.

Determines if all of the items in the collection satisfy the condition defined by predicate.

Determines if this dictionary contains a key equal to key. If so, the value associated with that key is returned through the value parameter.
