Maps Methods
put(key, value) - This method adds a key-value pair to
the map. If the key already exists in the map, the value
is overwritten.
get(key) - This method returns the value associated with
the specified key. If the key is not found in the map, null
is returned.
containsKey(key) - This method returns true if the map
contains the specified key, otherwise it returns false.
containsValue(value) - This method returns true if the
map contains the specified value, otherwise it returns
false.
isEmpty() - This method returns true if the map is
empty, otherwise it returns false.
size() - This method returns the number of key-value
pairs in the map.
keySet() - This method returns a set of all the keys in
the map.
values() - This method returns a list of all the values in
the map.
remove(key) - This method removes the key-value pair
with the specified key from the map. If the key is not
found in the map, no action is taken.
clear() - This method removes all key-value pairs from
the map.
putAll(mapToCopy) - This method copies all the key-
value pairs from the specified map into the current map.
Some more advanced methods:
entrySet() - This method returns a set of all the key-
value pairs in the map, as a Map.Entry object. The
Map.Entry object contains both the key and value for
each entry in the map.
getOrDefault(key, defaultValue) - This method returns
the value associated with the specified key, or the
specified default value if the key is not found in the map.
putIfAbsent(key, value) - This method adds a key-value
pair to the map only if the key does not already exist in
the map. If the key is already present, the existing value
is returned and no action is taken.
replace(key, newValue) - This method replaces the
value associated with the specified key with the new
value. If the key is not found in the map, no action is
taken.
replaceAll(function) - This method replaces all the
values in the map with the result of applying the
specified function to each value.
computeIfAbsent(key, function) - This method
computes the value for the specified key using the
specified function if the key is not already in the map,
and adds the key-value pair to the map.
computeIfPresent(key, function) - This method
computes a new value for the specified key using the
specified function only if the key is already in the map,
and updates the map with the new key-value pair.
compute(key, function) - This method computes a new
value for the specified key using the specified function,
and updates the map with the new key-value pair. If the
key is not already in the map, no action is taken.
merge(key, value, function) - This method adds the key-
value pair to the map if the key does not already exist,
or updates the existing value with the specified function.
keySetForValues(values) - This method returns a set of
all the keys in the map that have the specified values.
