If the specified key is not already associated with a value (or is mapped to null), attempts to compute its value using the given mapping function and enters it into this map unless null.

[Android.Runtime.Register("computeIfAbsent", "(Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/util/function/Function;)Ljava/lang/Object;", "GetComputeIfAbsent_Ljava_lang_Object_Ljava_util_function_Function_Handler:Java.Util.IMap, Mono.Android, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null", ApiSince=24)]
public virtual Java.Lang.Object? ComputeIfAbsent (Java.Lang.Object? key, Java.Util.Functions.IFunction mappingFunction);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("computeIfAbsent", "(Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/util/function/Function;)Ljava/lang/Object;", "GetComputeIfAbsent_Ljava_lang_Object_Ljava_util_function_Function_Handler:Java.Util.IMap, Mono.Android, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null", ApiSince=24)>]
abstract member ComputeIfAbsent : Java.Lang.Object * Java.Util.Functions.IFunction -> Java.Lang.Object
override this.ComputeIfAbsent : Java.Lang.Object * Java.Util.Functions.IFunction -> Java.Lang.Object

Parameters

key: Object

key with which the specified value is to be associated

mappingFunction: IFunction

the mapping function to compute a value

Returns

Object

the current (existing or computed) value associated with the specified key, or null if the computed value is null

Attributes: RegisterAttribute

Remarks

If the specified key is not already associated with a value (or is mapped to null), attempts to compute its value using the given mapping function and enters it into this map unless null.

If the mapping function returns null, no mapping is recorded. If the mapping function itself throws an (unchecked) exception, the exception is rethrown, and no mapping is recorded. The most common usage is to construct a new object serving as an initial mapped value or memoized result, as in:

{@code
            map.computeIfAbsent(key, k -> new Value(f(k)));
            }

Or to implement a multi-value map, Map<K,Collection<V>>, supporting multiple values per key:

{@code
            map.computeIfAbsent(key, k -> new HashSet<V>()).add(v);
            }

The mapping function should not modify this map during computation.
