The question today is: how can you sort a Map of key-value pairs using values instead of by keys.

First a little background

The map interface is used to map keys to values.

A map cannot contain duplicate keys, but there is no such restriction on values

Map contents can be viewed as a set of keys

A collection of values

Or a set of key-value mappings

So how can we sort a map by value instead of key

Great question, let’s take a look

There are a few different ways to accomplish this using both Java 8 and pre-Java 8 techniques

Let’s look at the elegant solution that was introduce in Java 8 using streams
