java hashmap get key based on value 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"
