associateBy
Returns a Map containing the characters from the given char sequence indexed by the key returned from keySelector function applied to each character.
If any two characters would have the same key returned by keySelector the last one gets added to the map.
The returned map preserves the entry iteration order of the original char sequence.

import kotlin.test.*
fun main(args: Array<String>) {
//sampleStart
val string = "bonne journée"
// associate each character by its code
val result = string.associateBy { char -> char.code }
// notice each char code occurs only once
println(result) // {98=b, 111=o, 110=n, 101=e, 32= , 106=j, 117=u, 114=r, 233=é}
//sampleEnd
}inline fun <K, V> CharSequence.associateBy(
keySelector: (Char) -> K,
valueTransform: (Char) -> V
): Map<K, V>(source)
Returns a Map containing the values provided by valueTransform and indexed by keySelector functions applied to characters of the given char sequence.
If any two characters would have the same key returned by keySelector the last one gets added to the map.
The returned map preserves the entry iteration order of the original char sequence.
