The size() method of NavigableMap interface is used to get the size of the map which refers to the number of the key-value pair or mappings in the Map.
Syntax:
NavigableMap.size()
Parameters: The method does not take any parameters.
Return Value: The method returns the size of the map which also means the number of key-value pairs present in the map.
Below programs illustrate the working of size() method:
Program 1: Mapping String Values to Integer Keys.
// Java code to illustrate the size() methodimport java.util.*; public class NavigableMap_Demo { public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating an empty NavigableMap NavigableMap<Integer, String> nav_map = new TreeMap<Integer, String>(); // Mapping string values to int keys nav_map.put(10, "Geeks"); nav_map.put(15, "4"); nav_map.put(20, "Geeks"); nav_map.put(25, "Welcomes"); nav_map.put(30, "You"); // Displaying the NavigableMap System.out.println("Initial Mappings are: " + nav_map); // Displaying the size of the map System.out.println("The size of the map is " + nav_map.size()); }} |
Output:
Initial Mappings are: {10=Geeks, 15=4, 20=Geeks, 25=Welcomes, 30=You}
The size of the map is 5
Program 2: Mapping Integer Values to String Keys.
// Java code to illustrate the size() methodimport java.util.*; public class NavigableMap_Demo { public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating an empty TreeMap NavigableMap<String, Integer> nav_map = new TreeMap<String, Integer>(); // Mapping int values to string keys nav_map.put("Geeks", 10); nav_map.put("4", 15); nav_map.put("Geeks", 20); nav_map.put("Welcomes", 25); nav_map.put("You", 30); // Displaying the NavigableMap System.out.println("Initial Mappings are: " + nav_map); // Displaying the size of the map System.out.println("The size of the map is " + nav_map.size()); }} |
Output:
Initial Mappings are: {4=15, Geeks=20, Welcomes=25, You=30}
The size of the map is 4
Note: The same operation can be performed with any type of Mappings with variation and combination of different data types.
