Examples

The following code example shows how to use the IDictionary.Remove of the System.Collections.IDictionary interface with a SortedDictionary<TKey,TValue>.

The code example is part of a larger example, including output, provided for the IDictionary.Add method.

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public class Example
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        // Create a new sorted dictionary of strings, with string keys,
        // and access it using the IDictionary interface.
        //
        IDictionary openWith = new SortedDictionary<string, string>();

        // Add some elements to the dictionary. There are no
        // duplicate keys, but some of the values are duplicates.
        // IDictionary.Add throws an exception if incorrect types
        // are supplied for key or value.
        openWith.Add("txt", "notepad.exe");
        openWith.Add("bmp", "paint.exe");
        openWith.Add("dib", "paint.exe");
        openWith.Add("rtf", "wordpad.exe");
