Fineb Alex check this out it's perfectly working: import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.Map.Entry; public class MyClass { public static void main(String[ ] args) { HashMap<Integer, String> players = new HashMap<Integer, String>(); players.put(74,"Rob"); players.put(154, "Amy"); players.put(103,"Dave"); //keys for(Entry<Integer,String> entry: players.entrySet()){ System.out.println(entry.getKey()); } //values for(Entry<Integer,String> entry: players.entrySet()){ System.out.println(entry.getValue()); } } }

Fineb Alex you need to find max/highest score (key) from the hash map. And print the value associated with that key like (154 is key of Amy) import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.Map.Entry; public class MyClass { public static void main(String[ ] args) { HashMap<Integer, String> players = new HashMap<Integer, String>(); players.put(74,"Rob"); players.put(154, "Amy"); players.put(103,"Dave"); //Getting max key int max = Collection.max(players.getKey()); for(Entry<Integer,String> entry: players.entrySet()){ if(max==entry.getKey()){ System.out.println(entry.getValue()); break; } } } } Or System.out.println(players.getValue(max)); Edit: your key and value pair is placed opposite,according to the Challenge String type in the hashmap is key and Integer type is value.

A colon after Players.put("Amy",103) Better a semicolon

Try this: for(Entry<String,Integer> entry: players.entrySet()) System.out.println(entry.getKey());
