[网络收集]Hashtable类、Hashtable的使用、

表示键/值对的集合，这些键/值对根据键的哈希代码进行组织。

命名空间:System.Collections
程序集:mscorlib（在 mscorlib.dll 中）

public class Hashtable : IDictionary, ICollection, IEnumerable, 
ISerializable, IDeserializationCallback, ICloneable
当把某个元素添加到 Hashtable 时，将根据键的哈希代码将该元素放入存储桶中。该键的后续查找将使用键的哈希代码只在一个特定存储桶中搜索，这将大大减少为查找一个元素所需的键比较的次数。
 Hashtable 的加载因子确定元素与存储桶的最大比率。加载因子越小，平均查找速度越快，但消耗的内存也增加。默认的加载因子 1.0 通常提供速度和大小之间的最佳平衡。当创建 Hashtable 时，也可以指定其他加载因子。
当向 Hashtable 添加元素时，Hashtable 的实际加载因子将增加。当实际加载因子达到指定的加载因子时，Hashtable 中存储桶的数目自动增加到大于当前 Hashtable 存储桶数两倍的最小质数。
 Hashtable 中的每个键对象必须提供其自己的哈希函数，可通过调用 GetHash 访问该函数。但是，可将任何实现 IHashCodeProvider 的对象传递到 Hashtable 构造函数，而且该哈希函数用于该表中的所有对象。
 Hashtable 的容量是 Hashtable 可拥有的元素数。Hashtable 的默认初始容量为零。随着向 Hashtable 中添加元素，容量通过重新分配按需自动增加。
C# 语言中的 foreach 语句（在 Visual Basic 中为 for each）需要集合中每个元素的类型。由于 Hashtable 的每个元素都是一个键/值对，因此元素类型既不是键的类型，也不是值的类型。而是 DictionaryEntry 类型。例如： 
foreach (DictionaryEntry de in myHashtable) {...}

        Hashtable openWith = new Hashtable();
        
        // Add some elements to the hash table. There are no 
        // duplicate keys, but some of the values are duplicates.

        // key is not in the hash table.

        // with the type that was specified for hash table values.

        {
            Console.WriteLine("Value = {0}", s);
