C# string list to Dictionary

Question

Hello,

I get this string back. Always with a carriage return. Do I have to create a key value from this? It's sure to be easy. Which is best?

String ret="Speed=300
Color=“Red“
Order=“35253256“
ProductID=342424
Price=“349 €“
Tax=“19%“
Electricity=2,55
Comment=“230V 2,55A“"

Goal
key = Color value = "Red"
key= Price value = 349 €

Hello @Markus Freitag

See if this works for you.

private void Demo()  
{  
    var ret =   
        "Speed=300\nColor=\"Red\"\nOrder=\"35253256\"\n" +   
        "ProductID=342424\nPrice=\"349 €\"\nTax=\"19%\"\n" +   
        "Electricity=2,55\nComment=\"230V 2,55A\"";  
      
    var itemsList = ret.Split('\n').Select(item =>  
    {  
        var parts = item.Split('=');  
        return new {Key = parts[0], Value = parts[1]};  
    }).ToList();  
  
    var dict = new Dictionary<string, string>();  
    foreach (var line in itemsList)  
    {  
        dict.Add(line.Key, line.Value);  
    }  
     
}
