You need another Map for that but beware that different keys in the first map
may have identical values in the second map, so if the first map has type:

[code=java]
Map<K, V>
[/code]

then the second Map needs to have a type:

[code=java]
Map<V, List<K>>
[/code]

or similar.

I do write a lot of code; do you?

kind regards,
