 /**
  * A hash-table based implementation of [Map].
  *
  * The keys of a `HashMap` must have consistent [Object.operator==]
  * and [Object.hashCode] implementations. This means that the `==` operator
  * must define a stable equivalence relation on the keys (reflexive,
  * anti-symmetric, transitive, and consistent over time), and that `hashCode`
  * must be the same for objects that are considered equal by `==`.
  *
  * The map allows `null` as a key.
