From what I've read so far I thought that collections where a good point for me to start, but now I see that collections should not be used and instead dictionaries should be, but from what i can read here they don't work the same way ... with a collection you could sort of do what i was looking for.

I guess I'm confused. What can you do with a collection that you can't do with a dictionary?
