Program Plan Intro

Open Addressing:

  • Open Addressing is a method of finding an open location in the hash table at the time of collision.
  • There are several variations for open addressing such as linear probing, quadratic probing, and double hashing.

Linear Probing:

  • Linear probing is one of the variations of open addressing.
  • When an entry is inserted into a hash table, a collision occurs. At the time of collision, linear probing will start finding the next available location sequentially.
  • Linear probing will look at the consecutive cells which begin at index k.
  • Starting from the initial index, linear probing will add an increment of 1 to k to define a search sequence.

Given values below: 66 47 87 900 126 140 145 500 177 285 393 395 467 566 620 735 Store the values into a hash table with ten buckets, each containing three slots. If a bucket is full, use the next (sequential) bucket that contains a free slot. And Store the values into a hash table that uses the hash function key % 10 to determine into which of ten chains (separate chaining) to put the value?
Show what occurs when the keys 5, 28, 19, 15, 20, 33, 12, 17, and 10 are inserted into a hash table with collisions addressed by chaining. If the table has nine slots, then the hash function should be h.k/D k mod nine.
Suppose you have a hash table with 1000 buckets and you want to insert 10,000 elements into the table. If the hash function distributes the elements uniformly, what is the expected number of collisions during the insertion process?
