Main differences between a Set and a Map in Java are:
1. Duplicate Elements: A Set does not allow inserting
duplicate elements. A Map does not allow using duplicate
keys, but it allows inserting duplicate values for unique
keys.
2. Null values: A Set allows inserting maximum one null
value. In a Map we can have single null key at most and
any number of null values.
3. Ordering: A Set does not maintain any order of elements.
Some of sub-classes of a Set can sort the elements in an
order like LinkedHashSet. A Map does not maintain any
order of its elements. Some of its sub-classes like
TreeMap store elements of the map in ascending order of
keys.
