Building a Hash Table from Scratch

Explore how to build a hash table from scratch in C# by creating HashEntry and HashTable classes. Understand bucket chaining to handle collisions and learn the role of a hash function in distributing keys.

We'll cover the following...

Hash table using bucket chaining

As mentioned earlier, hash tables are implemented using arrays in C#. The implementation itself is quite simple. You will use the chaining strategy, along with the resize operation to avoid collisions in the table.

All the elements with the same hash key ...
