以下是HashMap和TreeMap之间的主要区别

HashMap does not maintain any order. In other words , HashMap does not provide any guarantee that the element inserted first will be printed first, where as Just like TreeSet , TreeMap elements are also sorted according to the natural ordering of its elements Internal HashMap implementation use Hashing and TreeMap internally uses Red-Black tree implementation. HashMap can store one null key and many null values.TreeMap can not contain null keys but may contain many null values. HashMap take constant time performance for the basic operations like get and put i.e O(1).According to Oracle docs , TreeMap provides guaranteed log(n) time cost for the get and put method. HashMap is much faster than TreeMap, as performance time of HashMap is constant against the log time TreeMap for most operations. HashMap uses equals() method in comparison while TreeMap uses compareTo() method for maintaining ordering. HashMap implements Map interface while TreeMap implements NavigableMap interface.

HashMap、TreeMap和LinkedHashMap这三个类都实现了java.util.Map接口，并表示从唯一键到值的映射。

HashMap

HashMap包含基于键的值。 它只包含独特的元素。 它可以有一个空键和多个空值。 它没有维持秩序。 公共类HashMap<K,V>扩展了AbstractMap<K,V>实现了Map<K,V>，可克隆，可序列化

LinkedHashMap

LinkedHashMap包含基于键的值。 它只包含独特的元素。 它可以有一个空键和多个空值。 它与HashMap相同，只是维护插入顺序。//见下面的减速等级 公共类LinkedHashMap<K,V>扩展HashMap<K,V>实现Map<K,V>

TreeMap

TreeMap包含基于键的值。它实现了NavigableMap接口并扩展了AbstractMap类。 它只包含独特的元素。 它不能有空键，但可以有多个空值。 它与HashMap相同，只是维护升序(使用键的自然顺序进行排序)。 公共类TreeMap<K,V>扩展AbstractMap<K,V>实现NavigableMap<K,V>，可克隆，可序列化

哈希表

哈希表是一个列表数组。每个列表都被称为一个桶。桶的位置通过调用hashcode()方法来标识。哈希表包含基于键的值。 它只包含独特的元素。 它可能没有任何空键或值。 它是同步的。 这是一个传承类。 公共类Hashtable<K,V>扩展Dictionary<K,V>实现Map<K,V>，可克隆，可序列化

三者中最重要的是如何保存条目的顺序。

HashMap -不保存条目的顺序。 如。

public static void main(String[] args){
        HashMap<String,Integer> hashMap = new HashMap<>();
        hashMap.put("First",1);// First ---> 1 is put first in the map
        hashMap.put("Second",2);//Second ---> 2 is put second in the map
        hashMap.put("Third",3); // Third--->3 is put third in the map
        for(Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : hashMap.entrySet())
        {
            System.out.println(entry.getKey()+"--->"+entry.getValue());
        }
    }

LinkedHashMap:它保存条目的顺序。例如:

public static void main(String[] args){
        LinkedHashMap<String,Integer> linkedHashMap = new LinkedHashMap<>();
        linkedHashMap.put("First",1);// First ---> 1 is put first in the map
        linkedHashMap.put("Second",2);//Second ---> 2 is put second in the map
        linkedHashMap.put("Third",3); // Third--->3 is put third in the map
        for(Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : linkedHashMap.entrySet())
        {
            System.out.println(entry.getKey()+"--->"+entry.getValue());
        }
    }

TreeMap:按键的升序保存条目。例如:

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        TreeMap<String,Integer> treeMap = new TreeMap<>();
        treeMap.put("A",1);// A---> 1 is put first in the map
        treeMap.put("C",2);//C---> 2 is put second in the map
        treeMap.put("B",3); //B--->3 is put third in the map
        for(Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : treeMap.entrySet())
        {
            System.out.println(entry.getKey()+"--->"+entry.getValue());
        }
    }

这是我自己使用地图的经验，关于我何时使用每种地图:

HashMap - Most useful when looking for a best-performance (fast) implementation. TreeMap (SortedMap interface) - Most useful when I'm concerned with being able to sort or iterate over the keys in a particular order that I define. LinkedHashMap - Combines advantages of guaranteed ordering from TreeMap without the increased cost of maintaining the TreeMap. (It is almost as fast as the HashMap). In particular, the LinkedHashMap also provides a great starting point for creating a Cache object by overriding the removeEldestEntry() method. This lets you create a Cache object that can expire data using some criteria that you define.

HashMap

它有一对值(键，值) 禁止复制键值 无序的无序 它允许一个空键和多个空值

哈希表

和哈希映射一样 它不允许空键和空值

LinkedHashMap

它是map实现的有序版本 基于链表和哈希数据结构

TreeMap

有序和排序版本 基于哈希数据结构

@Amit: SortedMap is an interface whereas TreeMap is a class which implements the SortedMap interface. That means if follows the protocol which SortedMap asks its implementers to do. A tree unless implemented as search tree, can't give you ordered data because tree can be any kind of tree. So to make TreeMap work like Sorted order, it implements SortedMap ( e.g, Binary Search Tree - BST, balanced BST like AVL and R-B Tree , even Ternary Search Tree - mostly used for iterative searches in ordered way ).

public class TreeMap<K,V>
extends AbstractMap<K,V>
implements SortedMap<K,V>, Cloneable, Serializable

在坚果壳 HashMap:给出O(1)的数据，没有排序

TreeMap:给出O(log N)，以2为底的数据。使用有序键

LinkedHashMap:是具有链表(想想索引- skiplist)功能的哈希表，以插入树的方式存储数据。最适合实现LRU(最近最少使用)。
