/*
	Multiple Types 
		○ Adding heterozygous values to a hash table -- like string keys and int keys 
		○ Though all K|V pairs have different types they can all be added to the same hashtable
		○ Again to reference and return the value a cast operation is used.
			§ You decide what datatype to used based on what datatype you want to return.  E.g.,  For indexer [300], the return value is a string, so it is cast to (string).  For indexer key "Area", the desired return value will be a numeric, so it is cast to (int).  

Possible error -- if improperly cast, will throw InvalidCastException.
