  2. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    A universal hashing scheme is a randomized algorithm that selects a hash function h among a family of such functions, in such a way that the probability of a collision of any two distinct keys is 1/m, where m is the number of distinct hash values desired—independently of the two keys. Universal hashing ensures (in a probabilistic sense) that ...

  3. 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.

  4. Double hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_hashing

    Double hashing is a computer programming technique used in conjunction with open addressing in hash tables to resolve hash collisions, by using a secondary hash of the key as an offset when a collision occurs. Double hashing with open addressing is a classical data structure on a table .

  5. 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 ...

  7. Hopscotch hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopscotch_hashing

    Hopscotch hashing is a scheme in computer programming for resolving hash collisions of values of hash functions in a table using open addressing. It is also well suited for implementing a concurrent hash table. Hopscotch hashing was introduced by Maurice Herlihy, Nir Shavit and Moran Tzafrir in 2008. [1]

  8. 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 key–value 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.

  9. Linear probing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_probing

    Linear probing is a component of open addressing schemes for using a hash table to solve the dictionary problem.In the dictionary problem, a data structure should maintain a collection of key–value pairs subject to operations that insert or delete pairs from the collection or that search for the value associated with a given key.
