  static void Main() {

    // Create a Dictionary that holds employee

    // names and their corresponding salary.

    Dictionary dict =

      new Dictionary();

    // Add elements to the collection.

    dict.Add("Butler, John", 73000);

    dict.Add("Swartz, Sarah", 59000);

    dict.Add("Pyke, Thomas", 45000);

    dict.Add("Frank, Ed", 99000);

    // Get a collection of the keys (names).

    ICollection c = dict.Keys;

    // Use the keys to obtain the values (salaries).

    foreach(string str in c)

      Console.WriteLine("{0}, Salary: {1:C}", str, dict[str]);

  }
