I have a dictionary with two similar keys, one is misspelled so it created another key, that I would like to sum the values of, and delete the key/value pair that is misspelled.
If I have a dictionary of departments, with the department name as the key, and the number of personnel in that department as the value, I would like to sum the values for "Marketing" and "Marketin" and delete the misspelled key/value pair "Marketin".
var departments = new Dictionary<string, int>()
{
{ "HR", 33 },
{ "Management", 8 },
{ "Marketing", 21 },
{ "Marketin", 4 },
{ "Sales", 44 }
};
I would like the dictionary to look like this:
var departments = new Dictionary<string, int>()
{
{ "HR", 33 },
{ "Management", 8 },
{ "Marketing", 25 },
{ "Sales", 44 }
};
The dictionary is already created, so I only used an initialization for illustration purposes.
departments["Marketing"] += departments["Marketin"];
departments.Remove("Marketin");
