Remove entry with specified key from OrderedDictionary in C#


To remove entry with specified key from OrdererdDictionary in C#, the code is as follows −

Example

 Live Demo

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Specialized;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      OrderedDictionary dict = new OrderedDictionary();
      dict.Add("A", "Books");
      dict.Add("B", "Electronics");
      dict.Add("C", "Smart Wearables");
      dict.Add("D", "Pet Supplies");
      dict.Add("E", "Clothing");
      dict.Add("F", "Footwear");
      Console.WriteLine("OrderedDictionary elements...");
      foreach(DictionaryEntry d in dict) {
         Console.WriteLine(d.Key + " " + d.Value);
      }
      Console.WriteLine("Count of elements in OrderedDictionary = " + dict.Count);
      dict.Remove("E");
      Console.WriteLine("Count of elements in OrderedDictionary (Updated)= " + dict.Count);
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

OrderedDictionary elements...
A Books
B Electronics
C Smart Wearables
D Pet Supplies
E Clothing
F Footwear
Count of elements in OrderedDictionary = 6
Count of elements in OrderedDictionary (Updated)= 5

Example

Let us see another example −

 Live Demo

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Specialized;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      OrderedDictionary dict = new OrderedDictionary();
      dict.Add("A", "One");
      dict.Add("B", "Two");
      dict.Add("C", "Three");
      dict.Add("D", "Four");
      Console.WriteLine("OrderedDictionary elements...");
      foreach(DictionaryEntry d in dict) {
         Console.WriteLine(d.Key + " " + d.Value);
      }
      Console.WriteLine("Count of elements in OrderedDictionary = " + dict.Count);
      dict.Remove("C");
      dict.Remove("D");
      Console.WriteLine("Count of elements in OrderedDictionary (Updated)= " + dict.Count);
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

OrderedDictionary elements...
A One
B Two
C Three
D Four
Count of elements in OrderedDictionary = 4
Count of elements in OrderedDictionary (Updated)= 2
