Q1. Explain how hashmap internally works
Ans. 
HashMap internally uses an array of linked lists to store key-value pairs.
• HashMap uses hashing to determine the index of the key in the array.

• If multiple keys hash to the same index, a linked list is used to store them.

• When retrieving a value, the key is hashed to find the index and then the linked list is searched for the key.
