Example:
In the example below, the java.util.LinkedHashMap.getOrDefault() method returns the value to which the specified key is mapped in the given LinkedHashMap.
import java.util.*; public class MyClass { public static void main(String[] args) { //creating a linkedhashmap LinkedHashMap<Integer, String> MyMap = new LinkedHashMap<Integer, String>(); //populating hash map MyMap.put(101, "John"); MyMap.put(102, "Marry"); MyMap.put(103, "Kim"); MyMap.put(104, null); MyMap.put(105, "Sam"); //printing the value associated with //specified key of the LinkedHashMap System.out.println("key 101: " + MyMap.getOrDefault(101, "Blank")); System.out.println("key 102: " + MyMap.getOrDefault(102, "Blank")); System.out.println("key 104: " + MyMap.getOrDefault(104, "Blank")); System.out.println("key 107: " + MyMap.getOrDefault(107, "Blank")); } }
The output of the above code will be:
key 101: John key 102: Marry key 104: null key 107: Blank
