Solidity REPL
Types & storage

Mapping storage

Write a mapping and inspect the resulting storage change.

Solidity 0.8.36REPL mode

Why use this example

Use this pattern to explore how Solidity represents typed values and how state-changing expressions affect storage. The entry isolates mapping storage so its input, result, and state changes stay easy to compare.

Solidity to run

mapping(address => uint256) public balances
balances[msg.sender] = 25
balances[msg.sender]

What to expect

The sender’s mapping entry evaluates to 25 and the run records the corresponding storage write.

Continue the investigation

Change a value, add another expression, or open Inspect after the run. Accepted entries remain available to the next entry, and the clean replay keeps the complete result reproducible.
