StringDictionary

Use the StringDictionary type to map string values to other string values. This sample process expands abbreviated names of week days:

string ExpandName(string dayOfWeek)
{
	StringDictionary expandedNames = CreateStringDictionary();
	expandedNames["mon"] = "Monday";
	expandedNames["tue"] = "Tuesday";
	expandedNames["wed"] = "Wednesday";
	expandedNames["thu"] = "Thursday";
	expandedNames["fri"] = "Friday";
	expandedNames["sat"] = "Saturday";
	expandedNames["sun"] = "Sunday";
	return expandedNames[ToLower(dayOfWeek)];
}
