HashTable 哈希表 C++

What’s a Hash Table? Why we need a Hash Table?

By Using a Hash Table we can find element very quickly. For example, There are 20 random number in an array below.

It’s not a sorted array, So We can not use Binary Search to finding a number, When we need to find  118, We need 12 comparisons! Finding number like 270, 198, we need even more comparison.

We change the way the 20 number store. We store them in 10 linked lists. There is a rule, If the number’s last digit is 0, so we insert it in a  linked list which  index is 0. Look at  the Figure 1 for more detail. like number 118, it’s last digit is 8, so we  insert it in ninth linked list.

Hash Function

Note that the basic hash table which we explained above used a modulo function. There are many way to hash data, but modulo is the most common. What’s more, the modulo function often use a prime number. That was because you get fewer collisions when you modulo a key  by a prime number. Having fewer collisions makes your table easier to work and more efficient. There is a completed mathmatical reasoning behind this, but it is okay for us to assume that this is true for us.
