C# Dictionary get item by index
If you need to extract an element key based on index, this function can be used:
public string getCard(int random)
{
return Karta._dict.ElementAt(random).Key;
}
If you need to extract the Key where the element value is equal to the integer generated randomly, you can used the following function:
public string getCard(int random)
{
return Karta._dict.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Value == random).Key;
}
Side Note: The first element of the dictionary is The Key and the second is the Value
You can take keys or values per index:
int value = _dict.Values.ElementAt(5);//ElementAt value should be <= _dict.Count - 1
string key = _dict.Keys.ElementAt(5);//ElementAt value should be < =_dict.Count - 1
you can easily access elements by index , by use System.Linq
Here is the sample
First add using in your class file
using System.Linq;
Then
yourDictionaryData.ElementAt(i).Key
yourDictionaryData.ElementAt(i).Value
Hope this helps.
