Java HashMap remove() Method

The Java HashMap remove() method is used to remove the mapping for the specified key from this map if present.

Following is the declaration for java.util.HashMap.remove() method.

public V remove(Object key)

key − This is the key whose mapping is to be removed from the map.

The method call returns the previous value associated with key, or null if there was no mapping for key.

NA

The following example shows the usage of Java HashMap remove() method to remove an entry from a Map. We've created a Map object of Integer,Integer pair. Then few entries are added, map is printed. Using remove() method, an entry is removed from the map and map is printed again.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.HashMap;

public class HashMapDemo {
   public static void main(String args[]) {
      
      // create hash map
      HashMap<Integer,Integer> newmap = new HashMap<>();

      // populate hash map
      newmap.put(1, 1);
      newmap.put(2, 3);
      newmap.put(3, 3); 

      System.out.println("Initial map elements: " + newmap);

      // remove one entry
      newmap.remove(2);

      System.out.println("Map elements after removing an entry: " + newmap);
   }
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.

Initial map elements: {1=1, 2=3, 3=3}
Map elements after removing an entry: {1=1, 3=3}

      // populate hash map
      newmap.put(1, "tutorials");
      newmap.put(2, "point");
      newmap.put(3, "is best"); 

      System.out.println("Initial map elements: " + newmap);

      // remove one entry
      newmap.remove(2);

      System.out.println("Map elements after removing an entry: " + newmap);
   }
}

Initial map elements: {1=tutorials, 2=point, 3=is best}
Map elements after removing an entry: {1=tutorials, 3=is best}

The following example shows the usage of Java HashMap remove() method to remove an entry from a Map. We've created a Map object of Integer,Student. Then few entries are added, map is printed. Using remove() method, an entry is removed from the map and map is printed again.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.HashMap;

public class HashMapDemo {
   public static void main(String args[]) {
      
      // create hash map
      HashMap<Integer,Student> newmap = new HashMap<>();

      // populate hash map
      newmap.put(1, new Student(1, "Julie"));
      newmap.put(2, new Student(2, "Robert"));
      newmap.put(3, new Student(3, "Adam"));

      System.out.println("Initial map elements: " + newmap);

      // remove one entry
      newmap.remove(2);

      System.out.println("Map elements after removing an entry: " + newmap);
   }
}
class Student {
   int rollNo;
   String name;

   Student(int rollNo, String name){
      this.rollNo = rollNo;
      this.name = name;
   }

   @Override
   public String toString() {
      return "[ " + this.rollNo + ", " + this.name + " ]";
   }
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.

Initial map elements: {1=[ 1, Julie ], 2=[ 2, Robert ], 3=[ 3, Adam ]}
Map elements after removing an entry: {1=[ 1, Julie ], 3=[ 3, Adam ]}
