Can someone please post the specific instructions for this task?

Question about the task

Resolved

The task instructions are very ambiguous. Could someone please tell me EXACTLY what the task requires? The Map params - does it contain two parameters per <String><String>? Or are the parameters for the query ONLY in the value <String> not the key <String>? Thanks in advance.

I'm not exactly sure if I understand your question correctly. The Map contains two parameters <String><String> as already stated in the code. so each entry is a key-value-pair where the value can be null. I solved this in 5 lines of code ... so pretty simple - don't overthink it :)

So the full query {name=Johnson, country=United States, city=Los Angeles, age=null} is in the map value? Did yo assume you would need to iterate through a map or just complete for one query?

solution

This task should simulate some kind of SQL-query-builder. So referring to the example the map contains four entries as key = value: name = "Johnson" country = "United States" city = "Los Angeles" age = null So you definitely need to iterate through the map of course and ignore null-values.
