+ associations</c></item>
+ <tag/><item><c>M1 = M0#{ a := 10 }, % update values</c></item>

+ <tag/><item><c>#{ "hi" := V1, a := V2, b := V3} = M2.
+ % match keys with values</c></item>
+ </taglist>
+ <p>
+ For information on how to use Maps please see Map Expressions in the
+ <seealso marker="doc/reference_manual:expressions#map_expressions">

+ <tag/><item>No variable keys</item>
+ <tag/><item>No single value access</item>
