Write a Java program to get a reverse order view of the keys contained in a given map.

Sample Solution:-

Java Code:

import java.util.*;
import java.util.Map.Entry;  
public class Example10 {  
     public static void main(String args[]) {

  // Create a tree map
  TreeMap <String,String> tree_map1 = new TreeMap <String,String> ();

  // Put elements to the map 
  tree_map1.put("C2", "Red");
  tree_map1.put("C1", "Green");
  tree_map1.put("C4", "Black");
  tree_map1.put("C3", "White");

  System.out.println("Orginal TreeMap content: " + tree_map1);
  System.out.println("Reverse order view of the keys: " + tree_map1.descendingKeySet());
 }
}

Sample Output:

Orginal TreeMap content: {C1=Green, C2=Red, C3=White, C4=Black}        
Reverse order view of the keys: [C4, C3, C2, C1]
