字典就是关键字及其定义(描述)的集合。Cocoa中的实现字典的集合NSDictionary在给定的关键字(通常是一个NSString)下存储一个数值(可以是任何类型的对象)。然后你就可以用这个关键字来查找相应的数值。
不同于数组,字典(也被称为散列表或关联数组)使用的是键查询的优化存储方式。它可以立即找出要查询的数据,而不需要遍历整个数组进行查找。
可使用dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys来创建字典
查询字典的值:objectForKey
NSMutableDictionary的dictionary方法可以创建一个可变字典,也可以使用dictionaryWithCapaticy:。
使用 setObject:forkey: 方法添加字典元素,如果关键字已存在,则用新植替换旧值。
类似的,NSMutableDictionary类允许随意添加或删除字典元素。
添加元素:setObject:forkey:
删除元素:removeObjectForKey:
