TMap<T, S>

A TMap<T, S> creates a table of sorts in the RAM. A TMap represents a mapping of the keys at the left to the values on the right-hand side. You can visualize a TMap as a two-column table, with keys in the left column and values in the right column.

A list of items for the player's inventory

For example, say we wanted to create a C++ data structure in order to store a list of items for the player's inventory. On the left-hand side of the table (the keys), we'd have an FString for the item's name. On the right-hand side (the values), we'd have an int for the quantity of that item.

Item (Key)	Quantity (Value)
apples	4
donuts	12
swords	1
shields	2

To do this in code, we'd simply use the following:

TMap<FString, int> items;
items.Add( "apples", 4 );
items.Add( "donuts", 12 );
items.Add( "swords", 1 );
items.Add( "shields", 2 );

Once you have created your TMap, you can access values inside...
