Hi, Basically I have to make a buckets of data which will have some values. For example
FirstName -> X-B-N LastName -> X-C-B Age-> C-D-F etc But I dont know how many such buckets I need to create before runtime. So one opition which I think will be efficient will be Dictionary of something like this Dictionary<string, List<string>> arrayDict = new Dictionary<string, List<string>>(); But in the above case I am not getting how to insert data for the list in the dictionary. If you guys can suggest me some other data structure then please do. Thanks in advance.
