This package provides a couple of different implementations of mutable hash
tables in the ST monad, as well as a typeclass abstracting their common
operations, and a set of wrappers to use the hash tables in the IO monad.
.
There are three hash table implementations:
.
* Data.HashTable.ST.Basic contains a basic open-addressing hash table using
linear probing as the collision strategy. This should currently be the
fastest available hash table implementation for lookups, although it has a
higher memory overhead than others.
* Data.HashTable.ST.Cuckoo contains an implementation of "cuckoo hashing".
Cuckoo hashing has worst-case O(1) lookups and performs well even when the
table is highly loaded.
* Data.HashTable.ST.Linear contains a linear hash table, which trades some
insert and lookup performance for higher space efficiency and much shorter
delays when expanding the table.
.
This package provides the documentation for a library for the Haskell
programming language.
