Map size() method in Java is used to get the total number entries i.e, key-value pair. So this method is useful when you want total entries present on the map. If the map contains more than Integer.MAX_VALUE elements returnInteger.MAX_VALUE
Syntax:
int size();
Parameter: This method does not take any parameter.
Return value: This method returns the number of key-value mappings in this map.
Example 1: For non-generic input
Java
// Java program to illustrate // the Map size() Method import java.util.*; public class MapSizeExample { // Main Method public static void main(String[] args) { Map map = new HashMap(); // Adding key-values map.put( 1 , "Amit" ); map.put( 5 , "Rahul" ); map.put( 2 , "Jai" ); map.put( 6 , "Amit" ); // using the method System.out.println( "Size of the map is : " + map.size()); } } |
Output:
Size of the map is : 4
Example 2: For Generic Input
Java
// Java program to illustrate // the Map size() Method import java.util.*; class MapSizeExample { // Main Method public static void main(String[] args) { Map<Integer, String> map = new HashMap<Integer, String>(); map.put( 1 , "one" ); map.put( 2 , "two" ); map.put( 3 , "three" ); map.put( 4 , "four" ); // using the method System.out.println( "Size of map is :" + map.size()); } } |
Output:
Size of the map is : 4
