Hi!
Can somebody please explain line by line what this code do in the video?
Map<String, List<Treet>> treetsByAuthor = new HashMap<String, List<Treet>>();
for (Treet treet : treets) {
List<Treet> authoredTreets = treetsByAuthor.get(treet.getAuthor());
if (authoredTreets == null) {
authoredTreets = new ArrayList<Treet>();
treetsByAuthor.put(treet.getAuthor(), authoredTreets);
}
authoredTreets.add(treet);
}
System.out.printf("Treets by author: %s %n ", treetsByAuthor);
System.out.printf("Treets by nickrp: %s %n ", treetsByAuthor.get("nickrp"));
Thank you very much!
