HashMap: 不维持秩序 比LinkedHashMap快 用于存储对象堆 LinkedHashMap: LinkedHashMap插入顺序将被维持 比HashMap慢，比TreeMap快 如果你想保持一个插入顺序，使用这个。 TreeMap: TreeMap是一种基于树的映射 TreeMap将遵循键的自然顺序 比HashMap和LinkedHashMap慢 在需要维护自然(默认)排序时使用TreeMap

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.

@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)。

HashMap: 不维持秩序 比LinkedHashMap快 用于存储对象堆 LinkedHashMap: LinkedHashMap插入顺序将被维持 比HashMap慢，比TreeMap快 如果你想保持一个插入顺序，使用这个。 TreeMap: TreeMap是一种基于树的映射 TreeMap将遵循键的自然顺序 比HashMap和LinkedHashMap慢 在需要维护自然(默认)排序时使用TreeMap

这些是同一接口的不同实现。每种实现都有一些优点和缺点(快速插入，缓慢搜索)，反之亦然。

有关详细信息，请参阅TreeMap, HashMap, LinkedHashMap的javadoc。

HashMap 可以包含一个空键。

HashMap没有秩序。

TreeMap

TreeMap不能包含任何空键。

TreeMap保持升序。

LinkedHashMap

LinkedHashMap可用于维护插入顺序，即键被插入到Map中，也可用于维护访问顺序，即键被访问。

例子::

1) HashMap map = new HashMap();

    map.put(null, "Kamran");
    map.put(2, "Ali");
    map.put(5, "From");
    map.put(4, "Dir");`enter code here`
    map.put(3, "Lower");
    for (Map.Entry m : map.entrySet()) {
        System.out.println(m.getKey() + "  " + m.getValue());
    } 

2) TreeMap map = new TreeMap();

    map.put(1, "Kamran");
    map.put(2, "Ali");
    map.put(5, "From");
    map.put(4, "Dir");
    map.put(3, "Lower");
    for (Map.Entry m : map.entrySet()) {
        System.out.println(m.getKey() + "  " + m.getValue());
    }

3) LinkedHashMap map = new LinkedHashMap();

    map.put(1, "Kamran");
    map.put(2, "Ali");
    map.put(5, "From");
    map.put(4, "Dir");
    map.put(3, "Lower");
    for (Map.Entry m : map.entrySet()) {
        System.out.println(m.getKey() + "  " + m.getValue());
    }
