Output is true?

#1

Isn’t the output supposed to be the name of the books?

Right now the output is:
true
true

import java.util.HashMap;

class Library {
  
  public Library (){
  }
    
    public void getFinishedBooks(HashMap<String, Boolean> library){
      
      if (library.size() < 1){
        System.out.println("Library is empty");
      } else{
        for (String book: library.keySet()) {
          if (library.get(book) == true) {
          System.out.println(library.get(book));
        }
      }
    
      }
         
    }

    public static void main(String[] args){

      HashMap<String, Boolean> myBooks = new 
HashMap<String, Boolean>();
      
      myBooks.put("Road Down The Funnel", true);
      myBooks.put("Rat: A Biology", false);
      myBooks.put("TimeIn", true);
      myBooks.put("3D Food Printing", false);
      
      Library myLibrary = new Library();
      
      
      myLibrary.getFinishedBooks(myBooks);
      
      
    }
  

}

then you should println(book), now you are using book as key of hashmap to get value.

Thanks :slight_smile:

looping over a hashmap will give you the key (book) in your case, do you understand? Then you can use the key to get the associated value, if you want
