In this chapter you will learn:

  1. How to check if a Hashtable contains a value

Value existance

We can use the ContainsValue() method to check if Hashtable contains a value.

using System;/*from  ja  v  a 2  s. c om*/
using System.Collections;

class MainClass
{

  public static void Main()
  {
    Hashtable myHashtable = new Hashtable();

    myHashtable.Add("AL", "Alabama");
    myHashtable.Add("CA", "California");
    myHashtable.Add("FL", "Florida");
    myHashtable.Add("NY", "New York");
    myHashtable.Add("WY", "Wyoming");

    foreach (string myKey in myHashtable.Keys)
    {
      Console.WriteLine("myKey = " + myKey);
    }
    foreach(string myValue in myHashtable.Values)
    {
      Console.WriteLine("myValue = " + myValue);
    }
    
    if (myHashtable.ContainsValue("Florida"))
    {
      Console.WriteLine("myHashtable contains the value Florida");
    }
  }
}

The code above generates the following result.
