In the Java programming language, the `hashCode()` method is a built-in method that is used to return an integer value, called a hash code, for an object. This method is typically overridden in classes that wish to define their own custom hashing strategy based on the object's state or properties. The hash code is used primarily in hash-based data structures such as hash tables to efficiently organize and retrieve objects based on their unique hash codes.
