C# Dynamic List Name

Question

I need to create few list in c# but want to name those list dynamically according to some condition.

For example

List<string> x1= new List<string>();
List<string> x2 = new List<string>();

The name "x1" and "x2" would come at runtime (probably from some file or something). Is there any way to achieve this ?

Answer 1

Create Dictionary<string, List<string>>:

var dict = new Dictionary<string, List<string>>();

dict["x1"] = new List<string>();

You can replace "x1" with variable.
