How to read all items of a Dictionary in C#

Reading Dictionary Items

The Dictionary is a collection. We can use the foreach loop to go through all the items and read them using the Key and Value properties.

foreach (KeyValuePair<string, Int16> author in AuthorList)  
{  
    Console.WriteLine("Key: {0}, Value: {1}",  
    author.Key, author.Value);  
}

The following code snippet creates a new dictionary, reads all of its items, and displays them on the console.

public void CreateDictionary()  
{  
    // Create a dictionary with string key and Int16 value pair  
    Dictionary<string, Int16> AuthorList = new Dictionary<string, Int16>();  
    AuthorList.Add("Mahesh Chand", 35);  
    AuthorList.Add("Mike Gold", 25);  
    AuthorList.Add("Praveen Kumar", 29);  
    AuthorList.Add("Raj Beniwal", 21);  
    AuthorList.Add("Dinesh Beniwal", 84);   
  
    // Read all data  
    Console.WriteLine("Authors List");   
  
    foreach (KeyValuePair<string, Int16> author in AuthorList)  
    {  
        Console.WriteLine("Key: {0}, Value: {1}",  
            author.Key, author.Value);  
    }  
}
