         * 
         * Returns: the previous value associated with key, or null if there was
         * no mapping for key. (A null return can also indicate that the map
         * previously associated null with key.)
         */
        String value = treeMap.put(1, "Apple");

        System.out.println("Previous value associated with key '1' : " + value);
        System.out.println("treeMap : " + treeMap + "\n");

        value = treeMap.put(1, "Ball");

        System.out.println("Previous value associated with key '1' : " + value);
        System.out.println("treeMap : " + treeMap);

    }
}

Output

Previous value associated with key '1' : null
treeMap : {1=Apple}

Previous value associated with key '1' : Apple
treeMap : {1=Ball}
