Capacity

Returns the number of slots in the table, always a power of two.

Syntax

Capacity( ) as int32

Examples

#import "std/containers"
using containers

dim ages as Map( of ustring, integer )
print ages.Capacity              '' 0 -- nothing allocated yet

ages.Put( "ada", 36 )
print ages.Capacity              '' 8 -- the minimum

'' Capacity is a power of two and doubles at a load factor of 0.75,
'' so it is always well above Count
for i as integer = 1 to 7
    ages.Put( "k" & i, i )
next
print ages.Count & " of " & ages.Capacity    '' 8 of 16
