    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    Values are primarily retrieved using the indexer (which throws an exception if the key does not exist) and the TryGetValue method, which has an output parameter for the sought value and a Boolean return-value indicating whether the key was found.

  3. MurmurHash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MurmurHash

    MurmurHash is a non-cryptographic hash function suitable for general hash-based lookup. [1] [2] [3] It was created by Austin Appleby in 2008 [4] and, as of 8 January 2016, [5] is hosted on GitHub along with its test suite named SMHasher.

  4. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    find the value (if any) that is bound to a given key. The argument to this operation is the key, and the value is returned from the operation. If no value is found, some lookup functions raise an exception, while others return a default value (such as zero, null, or a specific value passed to the constructor).

  5. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    A hash table uses a hash function to compute an index, also called a hash code, into an array of buckets or slots, from which the desired value can be found. During lookup, the key is hashed and the resulting hash indicates where the corresponding value is stored. A map implemented by a hash table is called a hash map.

  6. Distributed hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_hash_table

    For example, key k could be the node ID and associated data could describe how to contact this node. This allows publication-of-presence information and often used in IM applications, etc. In the simplest case, ID is just a random number that is directly used as key k (so in a 160-bit DHT ID will be a 160-bit number, usually randomly chosen ...

  7. Cuckoo hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuckoo_hashing

    Cuckoo hashing is a form of open addressing in which each non-empty cell of a hash table contains a key or keyvalue pair.A hash function is used to determine the location for each key, and its presence in the table (or the value associated with it) can be found by examining that cell of the table.

  8. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    Scramble the bits of the key so that the resulting values are uniformly distributed over the keyspace, and Map the key values into ones less than or equal to the size of the table. A good hash function satisfies two basic properties: it should be very fast to compute, and it should minimize duplication of output values ( collisions ).

  9. Open addressing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_addressing

    Hash collision resolved by linear probing (interval=1). Open addressing, or closed hashing, is a method of collision resolution in hash tables.With this method a hash collision is resolved by probing, or searching through alternative locations in the array (the probe sequence) until either the target record is found, or an unused array slot is found, which indicates that there is no such key ...
