The following example shows the usage of java.util.LinkedHashMap.get() method.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.*;

public class LinkedHashMapDemo {

   public static void main(String[] args) {

      // create a new linked hash map
      LinkedHashMap map = new LinkedHashMap(5);

      // add some values in the map
      map.put("One", 1);
      map.put("Two", 2);
      map.put("Three", 3);

      // print the map
      System.out.println("Map:" + map);

      // get key "Three"
      System.out.println("" + map.get("Three"));

      // get key "Five"
      System.out.println("" + map.get("Five"));
   }
