Java Sorted Map Example

In this example we shall show you how to make use of Java Sorted Map. A SortedMap is a Map that sort its entries in ascending order according to the keys’ natural ordering, or according to a Comparator provided at the time of the SortedMap creation. All keys inserted into a SortedMap must implement the Comparable interface (or be accepted by the specified Comparator). Furthermore, all such elements must be mutually comparable (i.e, Mutually Comparable simply means that two objects accept each other as the argument to their compareTo method), If you try to sort keys which do not implement Comparable or not has a specific Comparator, a ClassCastException will be thrown.

Tip 1

java.lang.Comparable: int compareTo(Object o):

This method compares this object with o object. Returned int value has the following meanings.

positive – this object is greater than o
zero – this object equals to o
negative – this object is less than o

Also, we can use our own Comparator. If you need to know more about the Comparable andComparator, Take a look on Java Comparable and Comparator Example to sort Objects by Byron Kiourtzoglou.

Tip 2

All SortedMap implementation classes should provide four “standard” constructors as the following:

A void (no arguments) constructor, which creates an empty SortedMap sorted according to the natural ordering of its keys.

1 SortedMap sortedMap= new TreeMap();
A constructor with a single argument of type Comparator, which creates an empty SortedMap sorted according to the specified Comparator.

1 Comparator comparator = new MyComparator();

2 SortedMap sortedMap = new TreeMap(comparator);
A constructor with a single argument of type Map, which creates a new Map with the same key-value mappings as its argument, sorted according to the keys’ natural ordering.

1 Map map = new HashMap();

2 SortedMap sortedMap = new TreeMap(map);
A constructor with a single argument of type SortedMap, which creates a new SortedMap with the same key-value mappings and the same ordering as the input SortedMap.

1 SortedMap sortedMap= new TreeMap();

2 SortedMap newSortedMap = new TreeMap(sortedMap);

1. SortedMap Operations:

The SortedMap interface provides operations for normal Map operations and for the following:

Range view — performs arbitrary range operations on the SortedMap
1. subMap(K fromKey, K toKey): Returns a view of the portion of this Map whose keys range from fromKey, inclusive, to toKey, exclusive.
2. headMap(K toKey): Returns a view of the portion of this Map whose keys are strictly less than toKey.
3. tailMap(K fromKey): Returns a view of the portion of this Map whose keys are greater than or equal to fromKey.
Endpoints — returns the first or the last key in the SortedMap
1. firstKey(): Returns the first (lowest) key currently in this Map.
2. lastKey(): Returns the last (highest) key currently in this Map.
Comparator access — returns the Comparator, if any, used to sort the map
1. comparator(): Returns the Comparator used to order the keys in this Map, or null if this Map uses the natural ordering of its keys.

2.2. Explanation:

Let’s suppose that we want to sort a Map which contains a group of employees according to their ids where we use the employee id as a key and the employee name as a value. After we create a SortedMap using this Map and the key of thisMap is an Integer type which implements the Comparable interface, the keys are ordered in their natural ordering. Also, we can apply the descending order by creating our own Comparator then passing it to the SortedMap at creation time.

2.3. Output:

01
Unsort Map......

02
Key : 50 Value : Sama

03
Key : 1 Value : Bahaa

04
Key : 2 Value : Nada

05
Key : 99 Value : Ahmed

07
