Java Hashtable containsKey() Method

The Java Hashtable containsKey(Object key) method is used to test if the specified object is a key in this hashtable.

Following is the declaration for java.util.Hashtable.containsKey() method.

public boolean containsKey(Object key)

key − This is the a key to be searched.

The method call returns true if and only if the specified object is a key in this hashtable.

NullPointerException − This is thrown if the key is null.

The following example shows the usage of Java Hashtable containsKey() method to check if a key is present in a Hashtable or not. We've created a Hashtable object of Integer,Integer pairs. Then few entries are added, table is printed and using containsKey() we're checking about two keys in the table.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.Hashtable;

public class HashtableDemo {
   public static void main(String args[]) {
      
      // create hash table
      Hashtable<Integer,Integer> hashtable = new Hashtable<>();

      // populate hash table
      hashtable.put(1, 1);
      hashtable.put(2, 2);
      hashtable.put(3, 3); 

      System.out.println("Initial table elements: " + hashtable);
      System.out.println("Hashtable contains 2 as key: " + hashtable.containsKey(2));
      System.out.println("Hashtable contains 4 as key: " + hashtable.containsKey(4));
   }    
}

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

Initial table elements: {3=3, 2=2, 1=1}
Hashtable contains 2 as key: true
Hashtable contains 4 as key: false

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

      System.out.println("Initial table elements: " + hashtable);
      System.out.println("Hashtable contains 2 as key: " + hashtable.containsKey(2));
      System.out.println("Hashtable contains 4 as key: " + hashtable.containsKey(4));
   }    
}

The following example shows the usage of Java Hashtable containsKey() method to check if a key is present in a Hashtable or not. We've created a Hashtable object of Integer,Student pairs. Then few entries are added, table is printed and using containsKey() we're checking about two keys in the table.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.Hashtable;

public class HashtableDemo {
   public static void main(String args[]) {
      
      // create hash table
      Hashtable<Integer,Student> hashtable = new Hashtable<>();

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

      System.out.println("Initial table elements: " + hashtable);
      System.out.println("Hashtable contains 2 as key: " + hashtable.containsKey(2));
      System.out.println("Hashtable contains 4 as key: " + hashtable.containsKey(4));
   }    
}
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 table elements: {3=[ 3, Adam ], 2=[ 2, Robert ], 1=[ 1, Julie ]}
Hashtable contains 2 as key: true
Hashtable contains 4 as key: false
