C# | Replacing the value at a specific index in a SortedList object - GeeksforGeeks

01 Feb, 2019
SortedList.SetByIndex(Int32, Object) Method is used to replace the value at a specific index in a SortedList object.
Syntax:
public virtual void SetByIndex (int index, object value);
Parameters:
index: It is the zero-based index at which to save value.
value: It is the Object to save into the SortedList object. The value can be null.
Exception: This method throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException if the index is outside the range of the valid indexes of the given SortedList Object.
Below programs illustrate the use of above-discussed method:
Example 1:
// C# code for replacing the value at a// specific index in a SortedList objectusing System;using System.Collections;  class Geeks {      // Main Method    public static void Main(String[] args)    {          // Creating a SortedList of integers        SortedList mylist = new SortedList();          // Adding elements to SortedList        mylist.Add("First", "Ram");        mylist.Add("Second", "Shyam");        mylist.Add("Third", "Mohit");        mylist.Add("Fourth", "Rohit");        mylist.Add("Fifth", "Manish");          // Before replacing the keys        // and values of SortedList are        Console.WriteLine("----- Before Replacing -----");          Console.WriteLine("Index \t\t Keys \t\tValues");          for (int i = 0; i < mylist.Count; i++) {            Console.WriteLine("[{0}]\t\t{1}\t\t{2}", i,                              mylist.GetKey(i), mylist.GetByIndex(i));        }          Console.WriteLine();          // After replacing the keys        // and values of SortedList are        Console.WriteLine("----- After Replacing -----");          // Replaces the values at        // index 1 and index 3.        mylist.SetByIndex(1, "Priyanka");        mylist.SetByIndex(3, "Ritu");          Console.WriteLine("Index \t\t Keys \t\tValues");          for (int i = 0; i < mylist.Count; i++) {            Console.WriteLine("[{0}]\t\t{1}\t\t{2}", i,                              mylist.GetKey(i), mylist.GetByIndex(i));        }    }}
Output:
----- Before Replacing -----
Index          Keys         Values
[0]        Fifth        Manish
[1]        First        Ram
[2]        Fourth        Rohit
[3]        Second        Shyam
[4]        Third        Mohit

----- After Replacing -----
Index          Keys         Values
[0]        Fifth        Manish
[1]        First        Priyanka
[2]        Fourth        Rohit
[3]        Second        Ritu
[4]        Third        Mohit

Example 2: Demonstrating the case where ArgumentOutOfRangeException can occur
// C# code giving ArgumentOutOfRangeException // specific index in a SortedList object// but giving ArgumentOutOfRangeException using System;using System.Collections;  class Geeks {      // Main Method    public static void Main(String[] args)    {          // Creating a SortedList of integers        SortedList mylist = new SortedList();          // Adding elements to SortedList        mylist.Add("h", "Hello");         mylist.Add("g", "Geeks!");         mylist.Add("w", "Welcome");        mylist.Add("t", "to");        mylist.Add("n", "Noida");           // Before replacing the keys        // and values of SortedList are        Console.WriteLine("----- Before Replacing -----");          Console.WriteLine("Index \t\t Keys \t\tValues");          for (int i = 0; i < mylist.Count; i++) {            Console.WriteLine("[{0}]\t\t{1}\t\t{2}", i,                            mylist.GetKey(i), mylist.GetByIndex(i));        }          Console.WriteLine();          // After replacing the keys        // and values of SortedList are        Console.WriteLine("----- After Replacing -----");          // Replaces the values at        // index 6 which is outside         // the range of valid indexes        // here it will give an        // ArgumentOutOfRangeException        mylist.SetByIndex(6, null);          Console.WriteLine("Index \t\t Keys \t\tValues");          for (int i = 0; i < mylist.Count; i++) {            Console.WriteLine("[{0}]\t\t{1}\t\t{2}", i,                            mylist.GetKey(i), mylist.GetByIndex(i));        }    }}
Runtime Error:
Unhandled Exception:System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.Parameter name: index
Note:
The index sequence is based on the sort sequence. When an element is added, it is inserted into SortedList in the correct sort order, and the indexing adjusts accordingly. When an element is removed, the indexing also adjusts accordingly. So, the index of a specific key/value pair may change after adding and removing the elements from the SortedList object.
This method is an O(1) operation.
