How do I check what is the value against the specific key?

Time:09-11

I am currently trying to learn how Dictionaries work, and I can't find how to do what the title says.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace Demo.Aiman1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Dictionary<string, string> guestsFoods = new Dictionary<string, string>();
            guestsFoods.Add("Fiora", "Pancakes");
            guestsFoods.Add("Darius", "Pancakes");
            guestsFoods.Add("Mordekaiser", "Apple");
            if (guestsFoods.ContainsValue("Pancakes"))
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Something");
            }
        }
    }
}

Right now, the code is checking if the string "Pancakes" exists anywhere in the Value part of the dictionary. What I want is, to check if against the 1st Key of the dictionary("Fiora" in the current case), there is the string "Pancakes".

CodePudding user response:

        Dictionary<string, string> guestsFoods = new Dictionary<string, string>();
        guestsFoods.Add("Fiora", "Pancakes");
        guestsFoods.Add("Darius", "Pancakes");
        guestsFoods.Add("Mordekaiser", "Apple");
        foreach (var kvp in guestsFoods)
        {
            if (kvp.Value== "Pancakes")
            {
                Console.WriteLine($"{kvp.Key}");
                break;
            }
        }

Hi, hopefully this solves your problem!
