Real-world apps almost always require manipulating sets of data, and in C# apps, that data is normally held in collections. In this course, Working with Arrays and Collections in C#, you’ll learn how to use collections to access your data. First, you’ll discover how to look up and enumerate data in an array – the simplest of the collections. Next, you’ll learn how to add and remove data using a list, and how dictionaries can aid efficient look up by using a key. Then, you’ll delve into easily combining sets of data using the HashSet collection. Finally, you’ll explore how to process data using stacks and queues, and make modifications more efficient with linked lists. By the end of the course, you’ll have a better understanding of the skills needed to work with your data in C# using collections.
