I can't seem to wrap my head around this one. I need to sort a Dictionary by the value of an inner Dictionary using LINQ. Any thoughts?

  • Please give more information about what you want. Dictionaries aren't usually inherently sorted. What do you mean by "the value of the inner dictionary value" in the first place? An example of the data involved would be useful too. Commented Oct 5, 2009 at 15:44

Do you mean you want all values, sorted by the inner value?

from outerPair in outer from innerPair in outerPair.Value orderby innerPair.Value select new { OuterKey = outerPair.Key, InnerKey = innerPair.Key, Value = innerPair.Value };
