Use the
IntDictionary
type to map string values to integer
values. This example shows how to map the names of weekdays to numbers:
int DayOfWeek(string name)
{
IntDictionary weekDays = CreateIntDictionary();
weekDays["mon"] = 1;
weekDays["tue"] = 2;
weekDays["wed"] = 3;
weekDays["thu"] = 4;
weekDays["fri"] = 5;
weekDays["sat"] = 6;
weekDays["sun"] = 7;
return weekDays[ToLower(name)];
}
