Answer / stalin
The HashMap class is roughly equivalent to Hashtable, except
that it is unsynchronized and permits nulls. (HashMap allows
null values as key and value whereas Hashtable doesnt
allow). HashMap does not guarantee that the order of the map
will remain constant over time. HashMap is unsynchronized
and Hashtable is synchronized

Answer / venkateswarlu
HashMap :
->It is a key,value pair.
->key are not duplicated but values can be duplicated.
->Null key is possible.
->It is not Synchronized by default.
Hashtable:
->It is also key,value pair but both are Strings only.
-> Keys are not duplicated but values can be duplicated.
->Null insertion is not possible of both(key and value).
->It is Synchronized by default.

Answer / raghu
HashMap only one null key and multiple values. Hashtable
doesn't allow null keys and values, it throws
NullPointerException. Both are not guarantee order. HashMap
is unsyncronized, whereas Hashtable is not.
