HashMap<K, V>.fromIterable constructor

HashMap<K, V>.fromIterable(
  1. Iterable iterable, {
  2. K key(
    1. dynamic element
    )?,
  3. V value(
    1. dynamic element
    )?,
})

Creates a HashMap where the keys and values are computed from the iterable.

For each element of the iterable this constructor computes a key/value pair, by applying key and value respectively.

The keys of the key/value pairs do not need to be unique. The last occurrence of a key will simply overwrite any previous value.

If no values are specified for key and value, the default is the identity function. Example:

final numbers = [11, 12, 13, 14];
final mapFromIterable = HashMap<int, int>.fromIterable(numbers,
    key: (i) => i, value: (i) => i * i);
print(mapFromIterable); // {11: 121, 12: 144, 13: 169, 14: 196}

Implementation

factory HashMap.fromIterable(
  Iterable iterable, {
  K Function(dynamic element)? key,
  V Function(dynamic element)? value,
}) {
  HashMap<K, V> map = HashMap<K, V>();
  MapBase._fillMapWithMappedIterable(map, iterable, key, value);
  return map;
}
