The TreeMap in Java is used to implement the Map interface and NavigableMap along with the AbstractMap Class. The TreeMap is sorted according to the natural ordering of its keys. The TreeMap class is a Red-Black tree implementation of the Map interface and thus does not expose any methods using which we can access the TreeMap keys or values using their indices.
There are three simple ways to get key or TreeMap value using index in Java, which is the following :
- Using an Array
- Using a List
- Using iteration
Method 1: Using an Array
We can get a TreeMap key or TreeMap value using an index in Java by using an Array. The process is divided into three steps:
- Use the entrySet() method of the TreeMap class to get a Set view of all the entries stored in the TreeMap object.
- Convert the entry set to an array using the toArray() method.
- And get TreeMap key or TreeMap value using index with the help of getKey() and getValue() method
Syntax:
Set<Map.Entry<Integer, String>> entrySet = treeMap.entrySet();
Map.Entry<Integer, String>[] entryArray = entrySet.toArray(new Map.Entry[entrySet.size()]);
Example:
Java
// Java Program to get TreeMap key or TreeMap value// using index// Importing all classes of// java.util packageimport java.util.*;// Classpublic class GFG { // MAin driver method public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating a New TreeMap TreeMap<Integer, String> treeMap = new TreeMap<Integer, String>(); // Add elements to TreeMap // Custom inputs treeMap.put(1, "Welcome"); treeMap.put(2, "geeks"); treeMap.put(3, "on"); treeMap.put(4, "neveropen"); // Get entry set of the TreeMap using entrySet // method Set<Map.Entry<Integer, String> > entrySet = treeMap.entrySet(); // Convert entrySet to Array using toArray method Map.Entry<Integer, String>[] entryArray = entrySet.toArray( new Map.Entry[entrySet.size()]); // For loop for iteration and printing for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) { // Get Key using index and print System.out.println("Key at " + i + ":" + entryArray[i].getKey()); // Get value using index and print System.out.println("Value at " + i + ":" + entryArray[i].getValue()); } }} |
Output:
1 Welcome 2 geeks 3 on 4 neveropen
Method 2: Using a List
We can get TreeMap key or TreeMap value using index in Java by using a List instead of Array. The process is divided into three steps:
- Using entrySet() method of the TreeMap class to get a set view of all the entries stored in the TreeMap object.
- Now, converting the entry set to an array using the toArray() method.
- Finally, getting TreeMap key or TreeMap value using index with the help of get(), getKey() and getValue() methods.
Syntax:
Set<Map.Entry<Integer, String>> entrySet = treeMap.entrySet();
List<Map.Entry<Integer, String>> entryList = new ArrayList<Map.Entry<Integer, String>>(entrySet);
Example:
Java
// Java Program to get TreeMap key or TreeMap value// using index// Importing all classes of// java.util packageimport java.util.*;// Classpublic class GFG { // Main driver method public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating a TreeMap TreeMap<Integer, String> treeMap = new TreeMap<>(); // Add elements to TreeMap // Custom inputs treeMap.put(1, "Welcome"); treeMap.put(2, "geeks"); treeMap.put(3, "on"); treeMap.put(4, "neveropen"); // Get entry set of the TreeMap // using entrySet method Set<Map.Entry<Integer, String> > entrySet = treeMap.entrySet(); // Converting entrySet to ArrayList List<Map.Entry<Integer, String> > entryList = new ArrayList<>(entrySet); // For each loop for iteration for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) { // Print Key and Values using index // Get Key using index System.out.println("Key at " + i + ":" + entryList.get(i).getKey()); // Get value using index System.out.println( "Value at " + i + ":" + entryList.get(i).getValue()); } }} |
Key at 0:1 Value at 0:Welcome Key at 1:2 Value at 1:geeks Key at 2:3 Value at 2:on Key at 3:4 Value at 3:neveropen
Method 3: Using iteration
We can get TreeMap key or TreeMap value using index in Java by using an iteration. The process is divided into two steps:
- Using the entrySet() method of the TreeMap class to get a Set view of all the entries stored in the TreeMap object.
- Iterating on entrySet to get TreeMap key or TreeMap value using index with the help of getKey() and getValue() methods.
Syntax:
Set<Map.Entry<Integer, String>> entrySet = treeMap.entrySet();
Example:
Java
// Java Program to get TreeMap key or TreeMap value using// index// Importing all classes of// java.util packageimport java.util.*;// Classpublic class GFG { // MAin driver method public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating a TreeMp TreeMap<Integer, String> treeMap = new TreeMap<>(); // Add elements to TreeMap // Custom inputs treeMap.put(1, "Welcome"); treeMap.put(2, "geeks"); treeMap.put(3, "on"); treeMap.put(4, "neveropen"); // Get entry set of the TreeMap // using entrySet method Set<Map.Entry<Integer, String> > entrySet = treeMap.entrySet(); int index = 0; // For-each loop for iteration for (Map.Entry<Integer, String> currentEntry : entrySet) { // Print Key and Values using index // Get Key using index System.out.println("Key at " + index + ":" + currentEntry.getKey()); // Get value using index System.out.println("Value at " + index + ":" + currentEntry.getValue()); index++; } }} |
Key at 0:1 Value at 0:Welcome Key at 1:2 Value at 1:geeks Key at 2:3 Value at 2:on Key at 3:4 Value at 3:neveropen
