How to create a Map to store both string and Integer?

I have requirement where I need to create a map with values can be either string or Integer. Could someone please let me know how to approach?

Hi Naveen,

*You can Create map of both String and Integer, just keep sure that your key is Unique.

 Note: A map is a collection of key-value pairs where each unique key maps to a single value

  Map<integer,String> integer_String_Map = New Map<Integer,String>();
         ::
         ::
      <Key,Value>(pair)
* You can access string using integer or you can reverse the map if you need that way:
 
  Map<String,Integer> integer_String_Map = New Map<String,Integer>();
          ::
            ::
      <Key,Value>(pair)
 
I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.

Thanks and Regards,

map<string, integer> map = new map<string, integer>();

for(integer i=0; i<10; i++){
 map.put(string.valueOf(i), i);
}

All,  
I am not expecting this answer, hope you didnt get my question,
I need to create map in such a way that - in value field it should accomodate both string and integer., imy scenario is like i need to store the values coming from order object, 
so for example , i need to store name: which is  string
and then i need to store total amount which is a decimal.. etc etc

Hi naveen,

I have gone through your problem please refer bellow code:

Apex class:- 

public class TestMap {
    public static void maptest(){
        Map<Integer,String> lmap=new Map<Integer,String>();
        lmap.put(1,'Abc');
        lmap.put(2,'XYZ');
        System.debug(lmap);
    }

}



I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.

You need to use type Object like second parameter in map. Map<String,Object>
