A Dictionary<\/em> in Dynamo stands for a collection of data that is related to another piece of data known as the key.<\/em> Thanks to this method, we can easily look up certain things, similar to the classic dictionary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A simple example could be rooms, which are often sorted and queried according to key values such as room number or level. Dictionaries<\/em> simplify such queries and make them flexible to use, as can be seen in the following example: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The true advantage of this method of working is that the query or the creation of the Dictionary<\/em> (green group) only needs to be carried out once - we can then use this data flexibly and analyze it based on different Key values<\/em> as needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result are leaner and faster scripts, making dictionaries particularly relevant when working with large amounts of granular data (e.g. AEC Data Model and Data Exchange) - but more on this in the next articles! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ein Dictionary in Dynamo steht f\u00fcr eine Sammlung von Daten, die in Bezug zu einem anderen Datenelement steht, das als Schl\u00fcssel bezeichnet wird. Dank dieser Methode k\u00f6nnen wir, \u00e4hnlich wie im klassischen W\u00f6rterbuch, bestimmte Dinge einfach nachschlagen. Ein einfaches Beispiel sind etwa R\u00e4ume, die oft nach Schl\u00fcsselwerten wie Raumnummer oder Ebene sortiert und abgefragt werden. Dictionaries vereinfachen […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":457605,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-457603","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dynamo"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2lEa7-1V2H","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bim-me-up.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/felicia-montenegro-G0FTNFRwb4w-unsplash-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1707&ssl=1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/457603","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=457603"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/457603\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":457609,"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/457603\/revisions\/457609"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/457605"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=457603"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=457603"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bim-me-up.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=457603"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
