Using .ToDictionary()

Question

I have a method returning a List, let\'s call it GetSomeStrings().

I have an extension method on string class, returning number of characters in the str

Answer 1

A regular Dictonary is not sorted, but you can use a SortedDictonary:

var sortedDict = new SortedDictionary(
    GetSomeStrings().ToDictionary(x => x, y => y.Number('A')));

That statement should give you a SortedDictionary sorted by the string key.
