There are two variants of contains() in Java.util.TreeMap, both are discussed in this article.

1. containskey(Object o) : It returns true if the map contains a mapping for the specified key.

Parameters:
o : The key which will be tested whether present or not.
Return Value:
Returns true if there is a mapping for the given key.
Exception:
ClassCastException : This is thrown if the given key cannot be compared
with the keys currently in the map.
NullPointerException : This is thrown if the specified key is null.




// Java code to demonstrate the working
// of containsKey()
  
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
  
public class containsKey {
public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Declaring the tree map of Integer and String
        TreeMap<Integer, String> treemap = new TreeMap<Integer, String>();
  
        // assigning the values in the tree map
        // using put()
        treemap.put(2, "two");
        treemap.put(7, "seven");
        treemap.put(3, "three");
        treemap.put(6, "six");
        treemap.put(9, "nine");
  
        // Use of containsKey
        // returns true if mapping for the number is present
        System.out.println(treemap.containsKey(6));
        System.out.println(treemap.containsKey(4));
    }
}


Output:

true
false

2. containsValue(Object o) : It returns true if this map maps one or more keys to the specified value.

Parameters:
o : This is the value whose presence in this map is to be tested.
Return Value:
Returns true if a mapping to this value exists else false.
Exception:
NA




// Java code to demonstrate the working
// of containsValue()
  
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
  
public class containsValue {
public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Declaring the tree map of Integer and String
        TreeMap<Integer, String> treemap = new TreeMap<Integer, String>();
  
        // assigning the values in the tree map
        // using put()
        treemap.put(2, "two");
        treemap.put(7, "seven");
        treemap.put(3, "three");
        treemap.put(6, "six");
        treemap.put(9, "nine");
  
        // Use of containsValue
        // returns true if more than one keys are mapped
        System.out.println(treemap.containsValue("six"));
        System.out.println(treemap.containsValue("four"));
    }
}


Output:

true
false
