Java HashMap get() Method
Description
The Java HashMap get(Object key) method is used to return the value to which the specified key is mapped, or null if this map contains no mapping for the key.
Declaration
Following is the declaration for java.util.HashMap.get() method.
public V get(Object key)
Parameters
key − This is the key whose associated value is to be returned
Return Value
The method call returns the value to which the specified key is mapped, or null if this map contains no mapping for the key.
Exception
NA
Getting a Value for a Key from a Map of Integer, Integer Pair Example
The following example shows the usage of Java HashMap get() method to get a value based on a key from a Map. We've created a Map object of Integer,Integer pair. Then few entries are added, map is printed. Using get() method, a value is retrieved and printed.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.HashMap; public class HashMapDemo { public static void main(String args[]) { // create hash map HashMap<Integer,Integer> newmap = new HashMap<>(); // populate hash map newmap.put(1, 1); newmap.put(2, 2); newmap.put(3, 3); System.out.println("Initial map elements: " + newmap); System.out.println("Value: " + newmap.get(1)); } }
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.
Initial map elements: {1=1, 2=2, 3=3} Value: 1

package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.HashMap; public class HashMapDemo { public static void main(String args[]) { // create hash map HashMap<Integer,String> newmap = new HashMap<>(); // populate hash map newmap.put(1, "tutorials"); newmap.put(2, "point"); newmap.put(3, "is best"); System.out.println("Initial map elements: " + newmap); System.out.println("Value: " + newmap.get(1)); } }
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.
Initial map elements: {1=tutorials, 2=point, 3=is best} Value: tutorials
Getting a Value for a Key from a Map of Integer, Student Pair Example
The following example shows the usage of Java HashMap get() method to get a value based on a key from a Map. We've created a Map object of Integer,Student. Then few entries are added, map is printed. Using get() method, a value is retrieved and printed.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.HashMap; public class HashMapDemo { public static void main(String args[]) { // create hash map HashMap<Integer,Student> newmap = new HashMap<>(); // populate hash map newmap.put(1, new Student(1, "Julie")); newmap.put(2, new Student(2, "Robert")); newmap.put(3, new Student(3, "Adam")); System.out.println("Initial map elements: " + newmap); System.out.println("Value: " + newmap.get(1)); } } class Student { int rollNo; String name; Student(int rollNo, String name){ this.rollNo = rollNo; this.name = name; } @Override public String toString() { return "[ " + this.rollNo + ", " + this.name + " ]"; } }
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.
Initial map elements: {1=[ 1, Julie ], 2=[ 2, Robert ], 3=[ 3, Adam ]} Value: [ 1, Julie ]
