NavigableMap size() Method in Java

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() method
import 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() method
import 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.
