Idiom #329 Read value in a map

Assign to v the value stored in the map m for the key k.

Explain what happens if there is no entry for k in m.

var v = m[k];
v, ok := m[k]
v := m[k]
v = m.get(k);
m.getOrDefault(k, null);
v = m.get(k);
local v=m[k]

$v = $m{$k} // 'foobar';
$v = $m{$k};
v = m.get(k)
v = m.get(k, "default value")
