Anyone know of a collection version of

Map<K, V>.putIfAbsent(key: K, value: V)

?

putAll

overrides existing values sadly.

Would you mind clarifying what you mean by a “collection version?”

I guess something like

Map<K, V>.putIfAbsent(other: Map<K, V>)

?

you could just reverse the order of

putAll

, couldn’t you?

Hmmm, if both were mutable.

you could maybe use

+

in the preferred order?

I need to do it multiple times to build a big map. I'd have to use

var

😅.

gotcha

I'm more or less doing that already. I might be trying to hard to shrink this code.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ hm

Ha okay. Thanks for helping anyway!
