Explicit Interface Implementations

IEnumerable.GetEnumerator | Returns an enumerator that iterates through the Lookup<TKey, TElement>. This class cannot be inherited. |

Remarks
A Lookup<TKey, TElement> resembles a Dictionary<TKey, TValue>. The difference is that a Dictionary<TKey, TValue> maps keys to single values, whereas a Lookup<TKey, TElement> maps keys to collections of values.
You can create an instance of a Lookup<TKey, TElement> by calling ToLookup on an object that implements IEnumerable<T>.
.gif "Note") Note: |
|---|
There is no public constructor to create a new instance of a Lookup<TKey, TElement>. Additionally, Lookup<TKey, TElement> objects are immutable, that is, you cannot add or remove elements or keys from a Lookup<TKey, TElement> object after it has been created. |
Examples
The following example creates a Lookup<TKey, TElement> from a collection of objects. It then enumerates the Lookup<TKey, TElement> and outputs each key and each value in the key's associated collection of values. It also demonstrates how to use the properties Count and Item and the methods Contains and GetEnumerator.
