HashMap help

How would you remove something from the ArrayList while its in the HashMap and the HashMap will update with this

Code:java

public static HashMap<String, ArrayList<String>> gamePlayers = new HashMap<String, ArrayList<String>>();

 

Code:JAVA

 
ArrayList<String> list = gamePlayers.get("Some string that you have as a KEY in your hashmap");
list.remove(indexInt);
// If you need to get the index int of a certain string use:
list.indexOf("string");
 
// Then put back into your HashMap:
gamePlayers.put("same as KEY from higher up", list);
 

 

would this work

Code:java

public static void removePlayer(String name, String gameID) {
    for(ArrayList<String> list : gamePlayers.values()) {
        for(String d : list) {
            if(d.equalsIgnoreCase(name)) {
                list.add(name);
                gamePlayers.remove(gameID);
                gamePlayers.put(gameID, list);
                return;
           }
        }
    }
}
