hash-table-code-challenge

Implement a Hashtable with the following methods:

  • add: takes in both the key and value. This method should hash the key, and add the key and value pair to the table, handling collisions as needed.
  • get: takes in the key and returns the value from the table.
  • contains: takes in the key and returns a boolean, indicating if the key exists in the table already.
  • hash: takes in an arbitrary key and returns an index in the collection.

Structure and Testing

Utilize the Single-responsibility principle: any methods you write should be clean, reusable, abstract component parts to the whole challenge. You will be given feedback and marked down if you attempt to define a large, complex algorithm in one function definition.

Testing

Write tests to prove the following functionality:

Adding a key/value to your hashtable results in the value being in the data structure Retrieving based on a key returns the value stored Successfully returns null for a key that does not exist in the hashtable Successfully handle a collision within the hashtable Successfully retrieve a value from a bucket within the hashtable that has a collision Successfully hash a key to an in-range value
