Hash Map Class
HashMap is a collection that stores elements in the form of key-value pairs.If key is provided,its corresponding value can be retrieve easily.Keys should be unique .This means we cannot use duplicate data for keys in the HashMap.
HashMap is not synchronized and hence in case of multi threading we can get unreliable result.
Default Initial Capacity=16
Load Factor=0.75
HashMap Class Methods
value put(key,value)
value get(Object key)
Set<K> keySet()
Collection<V> values
value remove(Object key)
void clear()
boolean isEmpty()
int size()
