@ohos.util.TreeMap (Nonlinear Container TreeMap)

TreeMap stores key-value (KV) pairs. Each key must be unique and have only one value.

TreeMap is implemented using a red-black tree, which is a binary search tree where keys are stored in sorted order for efficient insertion and removal.

HashMap is faster in accessing data than TreeMap, because the former accesses data based on the hash code of the key, whereas the latter stores and accesses the keys in sorted order.

Recommended use case: Use TreeMap when you need to store KV pairs in sorted order.

This topic uses the following to identify the use of generics:

• K: Key

• V: Value
