Let's get Started
In the world of programming, hashing is a method of storing key-value pairs and this
is achieved by making use of HashMaps in Java. In addition to storing key-val pairs,
HashMaps are extensively used for solving a range of problems in information
technology. By reducing the time complexity of various operations, hashmaps can
make problem-solving much quicker when used in combination with different data
structures.

What is a HashMap?

A collection based on the map which is used for storing key-value pairs in Java is
known as a HashMap. All the keys which are stored in a Hashmap are unique.
Let's see the syntax for how we can create a HashMap in Java:

HashMap<Key, Value_mapped_to_the_key> name_of_your_map = new HashMap<>();

To give you an idea of HashMap let’s consider an example:


Suppose you want to store the roll number of students in a class along with their
names then you can easily do so with the help of HashMaps.The name serves as the
key for the hashmap and the roll number as the value which can be mapped to the
names.

As you can observe there is no ordering of names because hashmaps do not follow
any particular ordering for storing the elements.
Some important properties of a Hashmap in Java to remember:
Hashmaps are basically used for storing key-value pairs using a hashtable
Hashmap stores only unique keys
The is no particular ordering of elements in a HashMap
Import java.util.HashMap in your program for using a HashMap
Now in this article, we will be covering the most important and frequently asked Java
HashMap Interview Questions and Answers to help you ace the interviews. We will
cover different varieties of questions that cater to both freshers as well as
experienced programmers.

HashMap Interview Questions for Freshers


1. Explain the internal working of a HashMap.

Page 4 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

A hashmap uses a hashtable but what many people don’t know is that it is
internally created using two data structures namely an array and a linked list.
Whenever you declare a hashmap what is going to happen internally is that it
will create an array of buckets. The buckets are referred to as nodes or you can
say a linked list. These nodes contain mainly:
The key,
Value
Hashcode
Address of the next node.
Now, when you insert values in a key like this:

map.put("hashmap implementation in Java",1);

Then hashcode will be calculated by the put method. This hashcode will help us to
store the key at a particular index. Also, hashcode will make the process of retrieving
the values faster.

hashcode=hash(“hashmap implementation in Java”);

Page 5 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

This hash code is further computed and will generate an index for storing the value.
The value of our key will be stored at the index given by the hashcode in the form of a
LinkedList.
It’s important to note that Java 8 introduced BST in place of a linked list to make
retrieval of the key-value pairs more efficient.

2. What is the time complexity in terms of big o notation of


pushing and retrieving an element from a hashmap?
Time complexity is the measure of the number of CPU cycles utilized by a
program to execute.
Hashmap time complexity for pushing and retrieving the elements is the order
of 1 i.e O(1) using put and get methods respectively.

3. State the differences between a Hashmap and a Hashtable in


Java.

HashMap Interview Questions

4. Can you store multiple keys with the same value in a


hashmap?
No, multiple keys with the same value can’t be stored in a hashmap.
When you try to insert a new key that is already present in the hashmap then
overriding will happen and the old key will be replaced with the new key and a
new value.

5. Specify different methods of creating a hashmap in java


along with implementation.
Different methods of creating a hashmap are:
1) Constructing a hashmap with default capacity
Syntax:

HashMap<String, Integer> InterviewBIt_map1 = new HashMap<String, Integer>();

2) Constructing a hashmap with a defined capacity i.e 50 in our example


Syntax:

HashMap<String, Integer> InterviewBIt_map2 = new HashMap<String, Integer>(50);

3) Specifying lead factor along with the capacity


Syntax:

HashMap<String, Integer> InterviewBIt_map3= new HashMap<String, Integer>(50, 0.5f);

4) By copying another map into our map


Syntax:

HashMap<String, Integer> InterviewBIt_map4 = new HashMap<String, Integer>( InterviewBIt

6. Specify whether hashmaps in Java are thread-safe or not?

Page 8 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

The answer is "NO" i.e java.lang.HashMap does not support thread-safety. If


several threads are altering the HashMap, for example, insertions or removals,
then a HashMap should not be shared with other threads.
If you want to implement thread-safety then you can either use a
ConcurrentHashMap or by using the Collections.synchronizedMap() method.
When data consistency is crucial, Collections.synchronizedMap() should be
used, and ConcurrentHashMap should be used where the number of reads and
write operations to be performed are less.
Since Collections.synchronizedMap() needs every thread to attain a lock on the
whole object to accomplish both read and write operations, this results in slow
performance.
With ConcurrentHashMap , threads can simultaneously modify sections while
maintaining a lock on individual segments.

7. Does hashmap allow you to store null values?


Yes, We can store as many null values in a hashmap as we want but only one null key
can be stored not more than that.
Let’s see a program that depicts how we can store null values in a hashmap.

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class interviewBit {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
HashMap hmap=new HashMap();
hmap.put(1,"Program to store null value");
hmap.put(null,"InterviewBit");
System.out.println(hmap);
}
}

OUTPUT:

{null=InterviewBit, 1=Program to store null value}

8. What is the order in which keys are stored in a hashmap?

Page 9 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

There is no particular order for storing keys in a hashmap. All the keys are stored
in an unsorted order.
For storing the elements in a particular order a Treemap can be used in Java but
a hashmap does not guarantee the ordering of your elements.

9. How can iteration be performed in a HashMap?

import java.util.Map;
import java.util.HashMap;

public class example_____iteration


{
public static void main(String[] arg)
{
Map<String,String> INTERVIEW_BIT = new HashMap<String,String>();

INTERVIEW_BIT.put("hashmap coding interview questions", "AT INTERVEWBIT");


INTERVIEW_BIT.put("hashmap programming interview questions", "AT INTERVEWBIT");

for (Map.Entry<String,String> entry : INTERVIEW_BIT.entrySet())


System.out.println("Key = " + entry.getKey() +
", Value = " + entry.getValue());
}
}

Output:

Key = hashmap coding interview questions, Value = AT INTERVEWBIT


Key = hashmap programming interview questions, Value = AT INTERVEWBIT

10. How Does Java's Capacity And Size Of Hashmap Differ?


Sometimes it's confusing for students to understand the difference between capacity
is size.
So basically, HashMap's capacity indicates the number of entries it can hold, while its
length indicates how many key-value pairs are presently in existence.

HashMap Interview Questions

11. Discuss the approach for calculating all the equal


combinations formed by a pair of numbers in an array using
a hashmap i.e The numbers must satisfy these two
conditions: nums[i] == nums[j] and i < j Answer)
You all must have studied combinations, so the concept of combinations states
that every time we just have to select a pair from n numbers in an array that
satisfies the given conditions and the formula for doing so is NCR which is
equivalent to n*(n-1)/2.
Now hashmap will be used for calculating the frequency of all the numbers in
the array.
While iterating the array we will store the frequency of every element in a
hashmap.
The final step would be to iterate over the map and apply the formula n*(n-1)/2,
where n is the frequency of each element in the array.

12. What is collision in HashMap?


A collision occurs when more than one key generates the same hashCode()
value.
An inefficient hashCode() algorithm causes considerable collisions in a hashmap.
An increased number of collisions can affect the performance of a hashmap.

13. Which property of a hashmap is used to find the intersection


of two arrays?
Since a hashmap stores only unique elements, this property of a hashmap can
be used to find intersections i.e common elements of two arrays.
The approach to this problem is: first we will create a hashmap and fill the
elements of the first array in it.
The next step is to iterate over the second array and check whether the element
is present in the hashmap or not.
In this way, we can find all common elements of two arrays in O(n) time
complexity.

HashMap Interview Questions for Experienced


14. As we know that hashcodes are generated for each and
every key but what happens when the same hashcode is
generated for distinct keys?
When the same hashcode is generated for distinct keys then a collision will occur
as the bucket address of the two keys will be the same.
We have discussed that internally hashmap uses a linked list therefore the linked
list will store them all together.

15. Distinguish between a Hashmap and ConcurrentHashMap in


Java along with the implementation of both.
Hashmap vs ConcurrentHashMap:
1. ThreadSafe: One of the most significant differences between both is that a
Cocurrenthashmap is synchronized internally and thread-safe which makes it
suitable for a multithreaded environment whereas a hashmap is non-
synchronized as well non-thread-safe which makes it unsuitable for a
multithreaded environment.
2. Null Keys And Null Values: As we all know, data is kept in the form of key and
value pairs in a hashmap and we can store as many null values in a hashmap as
we want but only 1 null key can be stored whereas in a concurrent hashmap null
keys, as well as null values, are not permitted.
Implementations
Hashmap Implementation:

HashMap Interview Questions

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class interviewBit {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
HashMap hmap=new HashMap();
hmap.put(91,"Hashmap Implementation");
hmap.put(92,"in ");
hmap.put(93,"Java");
hmap.put(null,"InterviewBit");
System.out.println(hmap);
}
}

OUTPUT:

java -cp /tmp/ZPv88JJ0D2 interviewBit


{null=InterviewBit, 91=Hashmap Implementation, 92=in , 93=Java}

ConcurrentHashMap implementation:
For implementing ConcurrentHashmap we have to import the concurrent package.

import java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentHashMap;
public class interviewBit {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
ConcurrentHashMap hmap=new ConcurrentHashMap();
hmap.put(91,"Hashmap Implementation");
hmap.put(92,"in ");
hmap.put(93,"Java");
hmap.put(null,"InterviewBit");
System.out.println(hmap);
}
}

OUTPUT:

HashMap Interview Questions

java -cp /tmp/ZPv88JJ0D2 interviewBit


Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentHashMap.putVal(ConcurrentHashMap.java:1011)
at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentHashMap.put(ConcurrentHashMap.java:1006)
at interviewBit.main(interviewBit.java:12)

As we can observe from the above outputs we can store the null value in the
hashmap but it can’t be stored in a ConcurrentHashMap as it gives
NullPinterException.

16. What is the maximum number of entries you can store in


HashMap?
HashMap does not have a maximum number of entries because when the bucket is
full, the keys will be added to a linked list, which can store forever until all the
memory you have is consumed.

17. Define LinkedHashMap in Java


A linked HashMap is implemented in a similar way to a hashmap but contains a
doubly LinkedList for querying through all the key-value pairs.
LinkedHashMap stores the key-value pair in order, unlike a hashmap.
You can retrieve the data in the same order as they were inserted in the map i.e
the key which was inserted first can be taken out first.
Implementation of LinkedHashMap for understanding how we can insert and
retrieve key and value pairs easily:

Page 14 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

import java.util.LinkedHashMap;
public class InterviewBit {

public static void main(String[] args) {

LinkedHashMap m = new LinkedHashMap();

m.put("Linked", new Integer(1));


m.put("Map", new Integer(2));

Object lobj = m.get("Linked");


System.out.println(lobj);
}
}

The output of the above program will be 1.

18. Which is the best technique to handle collision in a


hashmap.
As part of its collision handling, HashMap employs chaining. In chaining, a linked list
is used for placing the key-value pairs inserted into the map with the value already
present to avoid collision in the map at a bucket location as the newly inserted value
is placed in front of the linked list.

19. Distinguish between a hashmap and a Treemap.

red-black trees.

20. How can a hashmap be used to check whether two given


arrays are equal or not i.e they contain the same elements
or not? Given the arrays can be unsorted.

Page 16 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

A hashmap can be easily used to check whether the given arrays are equal or
not.
First, create a hashmap and using a for loop fill the frequency of each and every
element of array 1 in the hashmap.
Now, make another loop and decrement the frequency of each and every
element of the second array in the hashmap.
In the next step, iterate over the hashmap and check whether all the frequencies
are zero or not. Even if any frequency is 1 return false else return true.

21. What factors determine the performance of a hashmap?


The performance or efficiency of a hashmap depends basically on two things that
are:
Capacity - Capacity is defined as the total number of buckets present in a
Hashmap and Sixteen is the default capacity when a Hashmap is created by the
user. The capacity can be increased when more key-value pairs are added to the
hashmap.
Load Factor - As discussed in the previous point the capacity of the map can be
increased but when should the hashmap increase its capacity?
This is decided by the load factor and its default value is seventy-five per cent.

HashMap Coding Interview Questions


22. You will be given an unsorted array of integers and a target
t. How will you implement a program using a Hashmap to
find the position of two numbers whose sum equals target
t?
Approach:

Page 17 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

A general approach for solving such kinds of problems is that first, you have to
create a map of Integers.
Then iterate through the given array and subtract the current value in the array
from the given target.
Look for that value in the hashmap simultaneously.
If the value is found in the map then return the index of these 2 numbers else
insert the current element of the array as the key and its index as the value in the
Hashmap.
Implementation:

class InterviewBit{
public int[] target(int[] nums, int t) {
HashMap<Integer, Integer> find_complement = new HashMap<>();

for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) {


if (find_complement.containsKey(t - nums[i]) == true) {
return new int[] { find_complement.get(t - nums[i]), i };
}
find_complement.put(nums[i], i);
}
return null;
}
}

23. Write a program to show how can we retrieve values from a


hashmap and state which method is used for it.
The get() method is used for retrieving the values from the hashmap.
Implementation:

Page 18 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

import java.util.HashMap;
public class InterviewBit
{
public static void main(String[] args)

{
HashMap<String, Integer> InterviewBit_map = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
InterviewBit_map.put("X", 1);
InterviewBit_map.put("Y", 2);
InterviewBit_map.put("Z", 3);
InterviewBit_map.put("W", 4);
int value = InterviewBit_map.get("Y");
System.out.println(value); //Output : 2
}
}

24. Write a program to find the highest frequency of a character


in a given string
You will be given a string and you are required to find the character which occurs the
most number of times using a hashmap.
Approach:
First of all, you are required to create a Hashmap.
A er that iterate over the string and check for each and every character whether
it is present in the hashmap or not.
If the character is not present in the hashmap then insert it else increase the
frequency of the character.
Once the hashmap is filled with the frequency of all the characters in the string,
loop over the map and checks for the highest frequency character present on
the map.
Implementation:

Page 19 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;

public class InterviewBit {

public static void main(String[] args) {


BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String str = br.readLine();

//Creating a hashmap
HashMap<Character, Integer> frequency_map = new HashMap<>();
for(int i = 0; i < str.length(); i++){
Character ch = str.charAt(i);
if(frequency_map.containsKey(ch) == true){
int old_freq = frequency_map.get(ch);
int new_freq = old_freq + 1;
frequency_map.put(ch, new_freq);
} else {
frequency_map.put(ch, 1);
}
}

Set<Character> keys = frequency_map.keySet();


Character c = str.charAt(0);
for(Character key : keys){
if(frequency_map.get(key) > frequency_map.get(c)){
c = key;
}
}

System.out.println(c);
}
}

25. 4 sum using hashmap: You will be given four arrays arr1,
arr2, arr3, and arr4 all of length n,you have to return the
count of tuples (i, j, k, l) satisfying the conditions: 0 <= i, j, k,
l < n nums1[i] + nums2[j] + nums3[k] + nums4[l] == 0
Approach:

Page 20 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

2 nested loops will be required for implementing this.


We will start by creating a hashmap
Next, all possible sums of 2 elements will be calculated and stored in the map
using the nested loops we created earlier.
Now again the nested loop will be used for calculating the sum of 2 elements of
the other two arrays.
Once we find out all the combinations of the sum, we take the complement of
that sum and find that in our hashmap.
If the complement is found then the count of tuples will be increased by 1 every
time
The time complexity will be O(N2)
Implementation:

import java.util.*;

class Solution {
public int fourSumCount(int[] arr1, int[] arr2, int[] arr3, int[] arr4) {
HashMap<Integer, Integer> AB = new HashMap<>();
for (int val1 : arr1)
for (int val2 : arr2)
AB.put(val1 + val2, AB.getOrDefault(val1 + val2, 0) + 1);

int count = 0;
for (int val3 : arr3)
for (int val4 : arr4)
count += AB.getOrDefault(-val3 - val4, 0);

return count;
}
}

26. Which method is used for checking whether a particular key


or a value is present in a HashMap or not? Write a program
for checking whether a particular key or a value is present in
a HashMap or not. If present return true else return false.
ContainsKey() and ContainsValue() methods are used for checking whether a
particular key or a value is present in a map or not.

import java.util.HashMap;
public class InterviewBit
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
HashMap<String, Integer> InterviewBit_map = new HashMap<String, Integer>();

InterviewBit_map.put("X", 1);

InterviewBit_map.put("Y", 2);

InterviewBit_map.put("Z", 3);

InterviewBit_map.put("W", 4);

int value = InterviewBit_map.get("Y");

System.out.println(InterviewBit_map.containsKey("X")); //Output : true


}
}

27. Which method is used for finding out the total number of
key-value pairs present in a hashmap?Give example.
Size() method is used for finding out the total number of key-value pairs present in a
hashmap.
Example:

Page 22 © Copyright by Interviewbit


HashMap Interview Questions

import java.util.HashMap;

public class InterviewBit


{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
HashMap<String, Integer> InterviewBit_map = new HashMap<String, Integer>();

InterviewBit_map.put("X", 1);

InterviewBit_map.put("Y", 2);

InterviewBit_map.put("Z", 3);

InterviewBit_map.put("W", 4);

System.out.println(InterviewBit_map.size()); //Output : 4
}
}

28. Design and implement a class which contains two function


find() as well as add()

The find function will check whether any pair exists whose sum is
equal to a given value in O(N) average time whereas add function will
be used for adding any element in O(1) average time.

A hashmap will be the best choice for meeting our requirements as adding an
element can be performed in O(1) time whereas searching or finding an element can
be performed in O(N) time.
Implementation:

public class TwoSum {


HashMap<Integer, Integer> our_map;

public TwoSum() {
our_map = new HashMap<>();
}

public void add(int number) {


our_map.put(number, our_map.getOrDefault(number, 0) + 1);
}

public boolean find(int data) {


for (Integer key : our_map.keySet()) {
int complement = data - key;
int freq_comp = freq.getOrDefault(complement, 0);

if (data - key == key) {


if (freq_comp >= 2)
return true;
} else {
if (freq_comp >= 1)
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
}

29. Which method is used for removing or deleting all the key-
value pairs? Write a program for removing all the key-value
pairs from a HashMap.
Clear() method is used for removing or deleting all the key-value pairs.
Implementation:

InterviewBit_map.put("Y", 2);

InterviewBit_map.put("Z", 3);

InterviewBit_map.put("W", 4);

InterviewBit_map.clear();

System.out.println(InterviewBit_map.size()); //Output : 0
}
}

30. Write a program to make a hashmap synchronized in java.

in java.
Here is the implementation:

import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

public class JavaHashMapPrograms


{
public static void main(String[] args)
{

HashMap<String, Integer> InterviewBit_map = new HashMap<String, Integer>();


Map<String, Integer> syncMap = Collections.synchronizedMap(InterviewBit_map);
} }
