Understanding Sets

Hi All,

I've been looking at the "set methods" in the apex lnaguage reference and see that there is no 'get' method for sets.
How does someone iterate through a set of values?

For example I have a Map of type Map<String, List<String>> myMap;

for each of the keys I'd like to do something with the list of values in the map.... to find the list of keys I use the Map Method "keySet()"

so I have a Set<String> s = myMap.keySet();

then I want a loop to iterate through this set and get the list from the map based on the set.value .....

help please???

i guess you're trying to do the following:

Code:
for(String strKey : myMap.keySet())
{
    List<String> thisList = myMap.get(strKey);

    for(integer i = 0; i < thisList.size(); i++)
    {
        // My Processing
    }
}
