Short hashCode() method in Java with Examples

The hashCode() method of Short class is a built in method in Java which is used to return the hash code of the ShortObject.

Note: The hashCode() returns the same value as intValue().

Syntax

ShortObject.hashCode()

Return Value: It return an int value which represents the hashcode of the specified Short object.

Below is the implementation of hashCode() method in Java:

Example 1:

// Java code to demonstrate
// Short hashCode() method

class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        String value = "74";

        // wrapping the short value
        // in the wrapper class Short
        Short b = new Short(value);

        // hashCode of the Short Object
        int output = b.hashCode();

        // printing the output
        System.out.println("HashCode of "
                           + b + " : " + output);
    }
}

Output:

HashCode of 74 : 74

Example 2:

// Java code to demonstrate
// Short hashCode() method

class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        String value = "-17";

        // wrapping the short value
        // in the wrapper class Short
        Short b = new Short(value);

        // hashCode of the Short Object
        int output = b.hashCode();

        // printing the output
        System.out.println("HashCode of "
                           + b + " : " + output);
    }
}

Output:

HashCode of -17 : -17
