Last update on March 12 2025 13:32:33 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Write a Java program to associate the specified value with the specified key in a HashMap.

Sample Solution:

Java Code:

import java.util.*;  
public class Example1 {  
  public static void main(String args[]) {  
  HashMap<Integer,String> hash_map= new HashMap<Integer,String>();  
  hash_map.put(1, "Red");
  hash_map.put(2, "Green");
  hash_map.put(3, "Black");
  hash_map.put(4, "White");
  hash_map.put(5, "Blue");
  for(Map.Entry x:hash_map.entrySet()){  
   System.out.println(x.getKey()+" "+x.getValue());  
  }  
 }  
}

Sample Output:

1 Red                                                                  
2 Green                                                                
3 Black                                                                
4 White                                                                
5 Blue
