java map example

Map Interface
A Map stores data in key and value association. Both key and values are objects. The key must be unique but the values can be duplicate. Although Maps are a part of Collection Framework, they cannot actually be called as collections because of some properties that they posses.
Interface
Description
Map
Maps unique key to value.
Map.Entry
Describe an element in key and value pair in a map. Entry is sub interface of Map.
NavigableMap
Extends SortedMap to handle the retrienal of entries based on closest match searches
SortedMap
Extends Map so that key is maintained in an ascending order.

 Commonly used Methods defined by Map
·         boolean containsKey(Object k): returns true if map contain k as key. Otherwise false.
·         Object get(Object k) : returns values associated with the key k.
·         Object put(Object k, Object v) : stores an entry in map.
·         Object putAll(Map m) : put all entries from m in this map.
·         Set keySet() : returns Set that contains the key in a map.
·         Set entrySet() : returns Set that contains the entries in a map.

HashMap class
1.     HashMap class extends AbstractMap and implements Map interface.

2.     It uses a hashtable to store the map data. 

Example1:- TestMap.java
import java.util.*;
class TestMap
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Map m=new HashMap();
m.put(101,"Java");
m.put(102,"Cpp");
m.put(103,"C#");
m.put(104,"C");
m.put("Amit",101);
m.put("Neha",102);
System.out.println(m);
}
}
Output:-
{Neha=102, 101=Java, 102=Cpp, 103=C#, 104=C, Amit=101}
Example2:-
import java.util.*;
class TestMap
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Map<Object,Object> m=new HashMap<Object,Object>();
m.put(101,"Java");
m.put(102,"Cpp");
m.put(103,"C#");
m.put(104,"C");
m.put("Amit",101);
m.put("Neha",102);
Set s=m.entrySet();
Iterator itr=s.iterator();
System.out.println("Key   :::::::::Value");
while(itr.hasNext())
{
Map.Entry me=(Map.Entry)itr.next();
System.out.println(me.getKey()+"    :::: "+me.getValue());
}
}
}
Output:-
Key :::::::::Value
Neha  :::: 102
101    :::: Java
102    :::: Cpp
103    :::: C#
104    :::: C
Amit  :::: 101

Example3:- TestMap.java
import java.util.*;
class TestMap
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Map<Object,Object> m=new HashMap<Object,Object>();
m.put(101,"Java");
m.put(102,"java");
m.put(102,"C#");
m.put(104,null);
m.put("Amit",101);
m.put("Neha",102);
Set s=m.entrySet();
Iterator itr=s.iterator();
System.out.println("Key   :::::::::Value");
while(itr.hasNext())
{
Map.Entry me=(Map.Entry)itr.next();
System.out.println(me.getKey()+"    :::: "+me.getValue());
}
}
}
Output:-
Key   :::::::::Value
Neha    :::: 102
101    :::: Java
102    :::: C#
104    :::: null
Amit    :::: 101

Example4:- TestMap.java
import java.util.*;
class TestMap
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Map<Object,Object> m=new HashMap<Object,Object>();
m.put(101,null);
m.put(102,"java");
m.put(102,"C#");
m.put(104,null);
m.put(null,101);
m.put(null,102);
Set s=m.entrySet();
Iterator itr=s.iterator();
System.out.println("Key   :::::::::Value");
while(itr.hasNext())
{
Map.Entry me=(Map.Entry)itr.next();
System.out.println(me.getKey()+"    :::: "+me.getValue());
}
}
}
Output:-
Key   :::::::::Value
null    :::: 102
101    :::: null
102    :::: C#
104    :::: null

Inner classes

Inner Classes:- class inside class or interface called inner class or nested class. Advantage of inner classes is grouping multiple classes and interfaces into a single class. Another big advantage of inner class is that inner class can happily access all the data or variables of outer class directly. Types of Nested classes:- There are two types of nested classes static and non-static nested classes. (A)Non –static inner classes:- 1)     Member inner class 2)     Anonymous inner class 3)     Local inner class (B)Static nested class Example1:-Outer.java class Outer { class Inner { void disp() { System.out.println("Hello This is Inner class Method"); } } public static void main(String[]args) { Inner in=new Inner(); in.disp(); } } Output:- C:\JAVATECH>javac Outer.java Outer.java:12: error: non-static variable this cannot be referenced from a static context Inner in=new Inner(); ...

Inheritance-4

Example10:- class Student { Student() { System.out.println("This is super class Zero argument constructor"); } Student(String s) { System.out.println("This is super class One argument constructor"); } } class Test extends Student { Test() { super(null); System.out.println("This is sub class Zero argument constructor"); } public static void main(String[]args) { Test t=new Test(); } } Output:- C:\JAVATECH>javac Test.java C:\JAVATECH>java Test This is super class One argument constructor This is sub class Zero argument constructor Example11:- class Student { Student() { System.out.println("This is super class Zero argument constructor"); } Student(String s) { System.out.println("This is super class One argument constructor"); } } class Test extends Student { Test() { super(); super(null); System.out.println("This is su...

Object,Data Hiding

Object:- Object is real time entity exist in the real world , the basic purpose of object is to transfer data from one location to another location.object is small memory , allocated inside primary memory(RAM).in java object created inside heap memory,actually in java RAM memory  is divided into some segment according to the type of variables for example. RAM==>Heap area+Stack area+String constant pool+class area  etc. when object created then inside object only non static class variables occupied memory and initialize with default values. non static class variables also known as instance variable reside into object in heap area,static variables occupied memory in class area at the time of class loading from HARD disk to RAM and all local variables occupied memory in stack area when reaching to variables. object  created from the class then what object contains is depend on class structure or class members.             ...
