## Class ConcurrentSkipListMap<K,V>

- java.lang.Object
- - java.util.AbstractMap<K,V>
  - - java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentSkipListMap<K,V>

- Type Parameters:
    `K` - the type of keys maintained by this map
    `V` - the type of mapped values
  All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Cloneable, ConcurrentMap<K,V>, ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,V>, Map<K,V>, NavigableMap<K,V>, SortedMap<K,V>

      public class ConcurrentSkipListMap<K,V>
      extends AbstractMap<K,V>
      implements ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,V>, Cloneable, Serializable

  A scalable concurrent `ConcurrentNavigableMap` implementation. The map is sorted according to the natural ordering of its keys, or by a `Comparator` provided at map creation time, depending on which constructor is used.

  This class implements a concurrent variant of SkipLists providing expected average log(n) time cost for the `containsKey`, `get`, `put` and `remove` operations and their variants. Insertion, removal, update, and access operations safely execute concurrently by multiple threads.

  Iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

  Ascending key ordered views and their iterators are faster than descending ones.

  All `Map.Entry` pairs returned by methods in this class and its views represent snapshots of mappings at the time they were produced. They do not support the `Entry.setValue` method. (Note however that it is possible to change mappings in the associated map using `put`, `putIfAbsent`, or `replace`, depending on exactly which effect you need.)

  Beware that, unlike in most collections, the `size` method is not a constant-time operation. Because of the asynchronous nature of these maps, determining the current number of elements requires a traversal of the elements, and so may report inaccurate results if this collection is modified during traversal. Additionally, the bulk operations `putAll`, `equals`, `toArray`, `containsValue`, and `clear` are not guaranteed to be performed atomically. For example, an iterator operating concurrently with a `putAll` operation might view only some of the added elements.

  This class and its views and iterators implement all of the optional methods of the `Map` and `Iterator` interfaces. Like most other concurrent collections, this class does not permit the use of `null` keys or values because some null return values cannot be reliably distinguished from the absence of elements.

  This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

      Returns:
        the previous value associated with the specified key, or `null` if there was no mapping for the key
      Throws:
        `ClassCastException` - if the specified key cannot be compared with the keys currently in the map
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key or value is null

    - #### remove

          public V remove(Object key)

      Removes the mapping for the specified key from this map if present.
      Specified by:
        `remove` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `remove` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Parameters:
        `key` - key for which mapping should be removed
      Returns:
        the previous value associated with the specified key, or `null` if there was no mapping for the key
      Throws:
        `ClassCastException` - if the specified key cannot be compared with the keys currently in the map
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key is null

    - #### containsValue

          public boolean containsValue(Object value)

      Returns `true` if this map maps one or more keys to the specified value. This operation requires time linear in the map size. Additionally, it is possible for the map to change during execution of this method, in which case the returned result may be inaccurate.
      Specified by:
        `containsValue` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `containsValue` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Parameters:
        `value` - value whose presence in this map is to be tested
      Returns:
        `true` if a mapping to `value` exists; `false` otherwise
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified value is null

    - #### size

          public int size()

      Returns the number of key-value mappings in this map. If this map contains more than `Integer.MAX_VALUE` elements, it returns `Integer.MAX_VALUE`.

      Beware that, unlike in most collections, this method is NOT a constant-time operation. Because of the asynchronous nature of these maps, determining the current number of elements requires traversing them all to count them. Additionally, it is possible for the size to change during execution of this method, in which case the returned result will be inaccurate. Thus, this method is typically not very useful in concurrent applications.

      Specified by:
        `size` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `size` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Returns:
        the number of elements in this map

      Returns `true` if this map contains no key-value mappings.
      Specified by:
        `isEmpty` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `isEmpty` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Returns:
        `true` if this map contains no key-value mappings

    - #### clear

          public void clear()

      Removes all of the mappings from this map.
      Specified by:
        `clear` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `clear` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`

    - #### computeIfAbsent

                                   Function<? super K,? extends V> mappingFunction)

      If the specified key is not already associated with a value, attempts to compute its value using the given mapping function and enters it into this map unless `null`. The function is NOT guaranteed to be applied once atomically only if the value is not present.
      Specified by:
        `computeIfAbsent` in interface `ConcurrentMap<K,V>`
      Specified by:
        `computeIfAbsent` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Parameters:

        `mappingFunction` - the function to compute a value
      Returns:
        the current (existing or computed) value associated with the specified key, or null if the computed value is null
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key is null or the mappingFunction is null
      Since:

      If the value for the specified key is present, attempts to compute a new mapping given the key and its current mapped value. The function is NOT guaranteed to be applied once atomically.
      Specified by:
        `computeIfPresent` in interface `ConcurrentMap<K,V>`
      Specified by:
        `computeIfPresent` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Parameters:

        1.8

    - #### compute

        `remappingFunction` - the function to compute a value
      Returns:
        the new value associated with the specified key, or null if none
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key is null or the remappingFunction is null
      Since:
        1.8

    - #### merge

          public V merge(K key,
                         V value,
                         BiFunction<? super V,? super V,? extends V> remappingFunction)

      If the specified key is not already associated with a value, associates it with the given value. Otherwise, replaces the value with the results of the given remapping function, or removes if `null`. The function is NOT guaranteed to be applied once atomically.
      Specified by:
        `merge` in interface `ConcurrentMap<K,V>`
      Specified by:
        `merge` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Parameters:
        `key` - key with which the specified value is to be associated

    - #### keySet

          public NavigableSet<K> keySet()

      Returns a `NavigableSet` view of the keys contained in this map.

      The set's iterator returns the keys in ascending order. The set's spliterator additionally reports `Spliterator.CONCURRENT`, `Spliterator.NONNULL`, `Spliterator.SORTED` and `Spliterator.ORDERED`, with an encounter order that is ascending key order. The spliterator's comparator (see `Spliterator.getComparator()`) is `null` if the map's comparator (see `comparator()`) is `null`. Otherwise, the spliterator's comparator is the same as or imposes the same total ordering as the map's comparator.

      The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the `Iterator.remove`, `Set.remove`, `removeAll`, `retainAll`, and `clear` operations. It does not support the `add` or `addAll` operations.

      The view's iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

      This method is equivalent to method `navigableKeySet`.

        `keySet` in interface `ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,V>`
      Specified by:

      Overrides:
        `keySet` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Returns:
        a navigable set view of the keys in this map

    - #### navigableKeySet

          public NavigableSet<K> navigableKeySet()

      Description copied from interface: `ConcurrentNavigableMap`
      Returns a `NavigableSet` view of the keys contained in this map. The set's iterator returns the keys in ascending order. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the `Iterator.remove`, `Set.remove`, `removeAll`, `retainAll`, and `clear` operations. It does not support the `add` or `addAll` operations.

      The view's iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

      Specified by:
        `navigableKeySet` in interface `ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,V>`
      Specified by:
        `navigableKeySet` in interface `NavigableMap<K,V>`
      Returns:
        a navigable set view of the keys in this map

    - #### values

          public Collection<V> values()

      Returns a `Collection` view of the values contained in this map.

      The collection's iterator returns the values in ascending order of the corresponding keys. The collections's spliterator additionally reports `Spliterator.CONCURRENT`, `Spliterator.NONNULL` and `Spliterator.ORDERED`, with an encounter order that is ascending order of the corresponding keys.

      The collection is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the collection, and vice-versa. The collection supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the `Iterator.remove`, `Collection.remove`, `removeAll`, `retainAll` and `clear` operations. It does not support the `add` or `addAll` operations.

        `values` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Specified by:
        `values` in interface `SortedMap<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `values` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Returns:
        a collection view of the values contained in this map

    - #### entrySet

          public Set<Map.Entry<K,V>> entrySet()

      Returns a `Set` view of the mappings contained in this map.

      The set's iterator returns the entries in ascending key order. The set's spliterator additionally reports `Spliterator.CONCURRENT`, `Spliterator.NONNULL`, `Spliterator.SORTED` and `Spliterator.ORDERED`, with an encounter order that is ascending key order.

      The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the `Iterator.remove`, `Set.remove`, `removeAll`, `retainAll` and `clear` operations. It does not support the `add` or `addAll` operations.

      The view's iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

      The `Map.Entry` elements traversed by the `iterator` or `spliterator` do not support the `setValue` operation.

        a set view of the mappings contained in this map, sorted in ascending key order

    - #### descendingMap

          public ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,V> descendingMap()

      Description copied from interface: `ConcurrentNavigableMap`
      Returns a reverse order view of the mappings contained in this map. The descending map is backed by this map, so changes to the map are reflected in the descending map, and vice-versa.

      The returned map has an ordering equivalent to `Collections.reverseOrder``(comparator())`. The expression `m.descendingMap().descendingMap()` returns a view of `m` essentially equivalent to `m`.

      Specified by:
        `descendingMap` in interface `ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,V>`
      Specified by:
        `descendingMap` in interface `NavigableMap<K,V>`

    - #### descendingKeySet

          public NavigableSet<K> descendingKeySet()

      Description copied from interface: `ConcurrentNavigableMap`
      Returns a reverse order `NavigableSet` view of the keys contained in this map. The set's iterator returns the keys in descending order. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the `Iterator.remove`, `Set.remove`, `removeAll`, `retainAll`, and `clear` operations. It does not support the `add` or `addAll` operations.

    - #### equals

          public boolean equals(Object o)

      Compares the specified object with this map for equality. Returns `true` if the given object is also a map and the two maps represent the same mappings. More formally, two maps `m1` and `m2` represent the same mappings if `m1.entrySet().equals(m2.entrySet())`. This operation may return misleading results if either map is concurrently modified during execution of this method.
      Specified by:
        `equals` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `equals` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`

      Description copied from interface: `ConcurrentMap`
      Performs the given action for each entry in this map until all entries have been processed or the action throws an exception. Unless otherwise specified by the implementing class, actions are performed in the order of entry set iteration (if an iteration order is specified.) Exceptions thrown by the action are relayed to the caller.
      Specified by:
        `forEach` in interface `ConcurrentMap<K,V>`
      Specified by:
        `forEach` in interface `Map<K,V>`
