Question

I am hoping to create a dictionary like this:

Dictionary<string, Variable> dict = new Dictionary<string, Variable>

In this thread How do I name variables dynamically in C#? the following code example was voted up and accepted as the answer to the question:

var vartable = new Dictionary<string, Variable>();
vartable[strLine] = new Variable(input);

However, when I try to do the same thing I get this error Message:

The type or namespace name 'Variable' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I have been unable to find a namespace that fixes this. Any advice is appreciated.

Regards.

Variable is meant to be your own class, so you have to define it first.
