Java Equivalent to Python Dictionaries

by

Python’s dict class is an implementation of what the Python documentation informally calls “mapping types“. Internally, dict is implemented using a hashtable.

Java’s HashMap class is an implementation of the Map interface. Internally, HashMap is implemented using a hashtable.

There are a few minor differences in syntax, and I believe the implementations are tuned slightly differently, but overall they are completely interchangeable.
