Map.findKey<'Key,'T> Function (F#)

Evaluates the function on each mapping in the collection and returns the key for the first mapping where the function returns true. If no such element exists, this function raises KeyNotFoundException.

Namespace/Module Path: Microsoft.FSharp.Collections.Map

Assembly: FSharp.Core (in FSharp.Core.dll)

// Signature:
Map.findKey : ('Key -> 'T -> bool) -> Map<'Key,'T> -> 'Key (requires comparison)

// Usage:
Map.findKey predicate table

Parameters

  • predicate
    Type: 'Key -> 'T ->bool

    The function to test the input elements.

  • table
    Type: Map<'Key,'T>

    The input map.

Exceptions

Exception

Condition

KeyNotFoundException

Thrown if the key does not exist in the map.

Return Value

The first key for which the predicate evaluates true.

Remarks

This function is named FindKey in compiled assemblies. If you are accessing the function from a language other than F#, or through reflection, use this name.

Example

The following example shows how to use Map.findKey.

let findKeyFromValue findValue map =
    printfn "With value %A, found key %A." findValue (Map.findKey (fun key value -> value = findValue) map)
let map1 = Map.ofList [ (1, "one"); (2, "two"); (3, "three") ]
let map2 = Map.ofList [ for i in 1 .. 10 -> (i, i*i) ]
try
    findKeyFromValue "one" map1
    findKeyFromValue "two" map1
    findKeyFromValue 9 map2
    findKeyFromValue 25 map2
    // The key is not in the map, so the following line throws an exception.
    findKeyFromValue 0 map2
with
     :? System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException as e -> printfn "%s" e.Message

Output

With value "one", found key 1.
With value "two", found key 2.
With value 9, found key 3.
With value 25, found key 5.
Exception of type 'System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException' was thrown.
