Note 1 In SARL, a map is a data structure that is also known as dictionary in other programming languages. This type of data structure maps keys to values.

Note 2 If you don’t know how to solve an problem, or what is the function to be used, you could search on Internet for the answer using the API of the Java programming language. Indeed, since SARL is fully compatible with the Java API, you could use all the types or functions that are defined in this Java API.
