Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`int`	`index(Object value)`	Indexes a single-value entry (a value of the dictionary type) into the dictionary, and returns the dictId of the value.
`int[]`	`index(Object[] values)`	Indexes a multi-value entry (an array of values of the dictionary type) into the dictionary, and returns an array of dictIds for each value.
`default int`	`insertionIndexOf(String stringValue)`	Returns the insertion index of the string representation of the value in the dictionary.
`default boolean`	`isSorted()`	Returns `true` if the values in the dictionary are sorted, `false` otherwise.

- Method Detail
  - index
```
int index(Object value)
```
    Indexes a single-value entry (a value of the dictionary type) into the dictionary, and returns the dictId of the value.
  - index
```
int[] index(Object[] values)
```
    Indexes a multi-value entry (an array of values of the dictionary type) into the dictionary, and returns an array of dictIds for each value.
  - isSorted
```
default boolean isSorted()
```
    Description copied from interface: Dictionary
    
    Returns true if the values in the dictionary are sorted, false otherwise.

  - insertionIndexOf
```
default int insertionIndexOf(String stringValue)
```
    Description copied from interface: Dictionary
    
    Returns the insertion index of the string representation of the value in the dictionary. This method follows the same behavior as in Arrays.binarySearch(Object[], Object). All sorted dictionaries should support this method. This method is for the range predicate evaluation.
