    See Also:
    
    hashCode(), entrySet()
  - get
```
public V get(Object key)

    Parameters:
    
    key - the key.

    the value of the mapping with the specified key, or null if no mapping for the specified key is found.
  - hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
    Returns the hash code for this object. Objects which are equal must return the same value for this method.
    
    Specified by:
    
    hashCode in interface Map<K,V>
    
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class Object
    
    Returns:
    
    the hash code of this object.

    Returns whether this map is empty.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isEmpty in interface Map<K,V>
    
    Returns:
    
    true if this map has no elements, false otherwise.

    size()
  - keySet
```
public Set<K> keySet()
```
    Returns a set of the keys contained in this map. The set is backed by this map so changes to one are reflected by the other. The returned set does not support adding.
    
    Specified by:
    
    keySet in interface Map<K,V>
    
    Returns:
    
    a set of the keys.
  - put
```
public V put(K key,
             V value)
```
    Maps the specified key to the specified value.
    
    Specified by:
    
    put in interface Map<K,V>
    
    Parameters:
    
    key - the key.
    
    value - the value.
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of any previous mapping with the specified key or null if there was no mapping.
    
    Throws:
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - if adding to this map is not supported.
    
    ClassCastException - if the class of the key or value is inappropriate for this map.

  - putAll
```
public void putAll(Map<? extends K,? extends V> map)
```
    Copies every mapping in the specified map to this map.
    
    Specified by:
    
    putAll in interface Map<K,V>
    
    Parameters:
    
    map - the map to copy mappings from.
    
    Throws:
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - if adding to this map is not supported.
    
    ClassCastException - if the class of a key or value is inappropriate for this map.
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if a key or value cannot be added to this map.
    
    NullPointerException - if a key or value is null and this map does not support null keys or values.
  - remove
```
public V remove(Object key)
```
    Removes a mapping with the specified key from this Map.
    
    Specified by:
    
    remove in interface Map<K,V>
    
    Parameters:
    
    key - the key of the mapping to remove.
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of the removed mapping or null if no mapping for the specified key was found.
    
    Throws:
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - if removing from this map is not supported.
  - size
```
public int size()
```
    Returns the number of elements in this map.
    
    Specified by:
    
    size in interface Map<K,V>
    
    Returns:
    
    the number of elements in this map.
  - toString
```
public String toString()
```
    Returns the string representation of this map.
    
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Object
    
    Returns:
    
    the string representation of this map.
  - values
```
public Collection<V> values()
```
    Returns a collection of the values contained in this map. The collection is backed by this map so changes to one are reflected by the other. The collection supports remove, removeAll, retainAll and clear operations, and it does not support add or addAll operations.
    This method returns a collection which is the subclass of AbstractCollection. The iterator method of this subclass returns a "wrapper object" over the iterator of map's entrySet(). The size method wraps the map's size method and the contains method wraps the map's containsValue method.
    The collection is created when this method is called for the first time and returned in response to all subsequent calls. This method may return different collections when multiple concurrent calls occur to this method, since no synchronization is performed.
    
    Specified by:
    
    values in interface Map<K,V>
    
    Returns:
    
    a collection of the values contained in this map.
