How to Replace the value in particular key in LinkedHashMap

Question

I want to replace the value in particular key in LinkedHashMap.

for example The initial Condition..

"key1" -> "value1"
"key2" -> "value2"
"key3" -> "value3"
"key4" -> "value4"
"key5" -> "value5"

I want to expected result...

"key1" -> "value1"
"key2" -> "value8"
"key3" -> "value3"
"key4" -> "value6"
"key5" -> "value5"

Answer 1

You put a new value for that key :

map.put("key2","value8");
map.put("key4","value6");

Note that for LinkedHashMap, changing the value for an existing key won't change the iteration order of the Map (which is the order in which the keys were first inserted to the Map).

Answer 2

In Map(LinkedHashMap) key is the unique value. So whenever you try to put a value for a key, it will either add new entry in map or if key already exist then it will replace old value for that key with new value.

map.put("existing key", "new value");

Above code will replace value of existing key in map with new value.
