get key by value in map java code example

Example 1: java map get the key from value

public static <T, E> Set<T> getKeyByValue(Map<T, E> map, E value) {
    return map.entrySet()
              .stream()
              .filter(entry -> Objects.equals(entry.getValue(), value))
              .map(Map.Entry::getKey)
              .collect(Collectors.toSet());
}

Example 2: hashmap get value by key java

import java.util.HashMap;
//Within a class
//You can do new HashMap<Key Type, Value Type>();, but you don't need to
HashMap<Int, String> examplehashmap=new HashMap<>();
{
//put in values
 examplehashmap.put(5, "example");
};
//get value
examplehashmap.get(5);
//returns "example"
