toring and Retrieving ArrayList values from hashmap

Our variable:

Map<String, List<Integer>> map = new HashMap<String, List<Integer>>();

To store:

map.put("mango", new ArrayList<Integer>(Arrays.asList(0, 4, 8, 9, 12)));

To add numbers one and one, you can do something like this:

String key = "mango";
int number = 42;
if (map.get(key) == null) {
    map.put(key, new ArrayList<Integer>());
}
map.get(key).add(number);

In Java 8 you can use putIfAbsent to add the list if it did not exist already:

map.putIfAbsent(key, new ArrayList<Integer>());
map.get(key).add(number);

---

Use the map.entrySet() method to iterate on:

for (Entry<String, List<Integer>> ee : map.entrySet()) {
    String key = ee.getKey();
    List<Integer> values = ee.getValue();
    // TODO: Do something.
}
