find the intersection of two maps in csharp

To find the intersection of two maps (dictionaries) in C#, you can use LINQ and the Intersect extension method. Here's an example:

main.cs
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Dictionary<string, int> map1 = new Dictionary<string, int> {
            { "a", 1 },
            { "b", 2 },
            { "c", 3 }
        };
        Dictionary<string, int> map2 = new Dictionary<string, int> {
            { "b", 2 },
            { "c", 3 },
            { "d", 4 }
        };

        var intersection = map1.Intersect(map2);

        foreach (var item in intersection)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", item.Key, item.Value);
        }
    }
}

28 lines

In this example, we have two dictionaries (map1 and map2) with some overlapping keys and values. We use the Intersect method to get the intersection of the two maps, which is a sequence of key-value pairs that exist in both maps.

The output of this program is:

main.cs
b: 2
c: 3
10 chars
3 lines

which is the intersection of the two maps.
