Integer hashCode() Method in Java

The java.lang.Integer.hashCode() method of Integer class in Java is used to return the hash code for a particular Integer .

Syntax:

public int hashCode()

Parameters : The method does not take any parameters.

Return Value: The method returns a hash code integer value for this object, which is equal to the uncomplicated primitive integer value, represented by this Integer object.

Below programs illustrate the use of hashCode() of Integer class:
Program 1: When integer data type is passed.

                        filter_none









Output:


Hash code Value for object = 223





Program 2: When String data type is passed.

Note: This causes RuntimeErrors like NumberFormatException
