Hi,

 

It is not possible in map because 1 key contains multiple unique values.

 

If you want to store duplicate values then you can use List with the map.

 

For example

 

Map<integer, list<string>>  ss=new Map< integer ,list<string>>  ();

List<string> s1=new list<string>(){‘a’,’b’,’c’,’a’,’b’};

ss.put(1,s1);
