What is the best practice technique for using the .net native generic
sorted list when I don't really need to have the value field
occupied.
I'd hate to write something like: mySortedList.Add( "John", null );
Because when I look at that it just doesn't feel right. You don't
exactly know what the intentions of the programmer are. Does he just
not have a value in this instance? Should it be null? If it's null
here can I still put a value if I want?
I just don't like the fact that .net forces you to use the key/value
methodology when you don't always need it.
Or am I just plain old missing some important concept here?
Anyways, what's the ideal way to handle this because like I said I
don't need the value part occupied...it's of no use to me but I still
want to use Generics.
Thanks,
