StringDictionary.Values property is used to get a collection of values in the StringDictionary. Syntax:
public virtual System.Collections.ICollection Values { get; }
Return Value: An ICollection that provides the values in the StringDictionary. Example 1: CSHARP
// C# code to get a collection
// of values in the StringDictionary
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Specialized;

class GFG {

    // Driver code
    public static void Main()
    {

        // Creating a StringDictionary named myDict
        StringDictionary myDict = new StringDictionary();

        // Adding key and value into the StringDictionary
        myDict.Add("A", "Apple");
        myDict.Add("B", "Banana");
        myDict.Add("C", "Cat");
        myDict.Add("D", "Dog");

        // Getting a collection of values
        // in the StringDictionary
        foreach(string val in myDict.Values)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(val);
        }
    }
}
Output:
Dog
Banana
Cat
Apple
Example 2: CSHARP
// C# code to get a collection
// of values in the StringDictionary
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Specialized;

class GFG {

    // Driver code
    public static void Main()
    {

        // Creating a StringDictionary named myDict
        StringDictionary myDict = new StringDictionary();

        // Adding key and value into the StringDictionary
        myDict.Add("3", "prime & odd");
        myDict.Add("2", "prime & even");
        myDict.Add("4", "non-prime & even");
        myDict.Add("9", "non-prime & odd");

        // Getting a collection of values
        // in the StringDictionary
        foreach(string val in myDict.Values)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(val);
        }
    }
}
Output:
prime & even
prime & odd
non-prime & odd
non-prime & even
Note:
  • The order of the values in the ICollection is unspecified, but it is the same order as the associated keys in the ICollection returned by the Keys method.
  • The returned ICollection is not a static copy. Instead, the ICollection refers back to the values in the original StringDictionary. Therefore, changes to the StringDictionary continue to be reflected in the ICollection.
  • Retrieving the value of this property is an O(1) operation.
