The
keySet() method of
SortedMap Interface in Java is used to create a set out of the key elements contained in the treemap. It basically returns a set view of the keys or we can create a new set and store the key elements in them in an ascending order. Since the set is backed by the map, any changes made to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa.
Syntax:
SortedMap.keySet()
Parameters: The method does not take any parameter.
Return Value: The method returns a set having the keys of the treemap in ascending order.
Below programs are used to illustrate the working of the above method:
Program 1: Mapping String Values to Integer Keys.
Program 2: Mapping Integer Values to String Keys.
