Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

The linear-probing hash table is one of the oldest and most widely used data structures in computer science. However, linear probing famously comes with a major draw-back: as soon as the hash table ...

A young computer scientist and two colleagues show that searches within data structures called hash tables can be much faster than previously deemed possible.

Linear probing is a collision resolution strategy. When a collision occurs on insert, we probe the hash table, in a linear, stepwise fashion, to find the next available space in which to store our new ...

Quadratic probing avoids secondary clustering but is prone to tertiary clustering. Just as with linear probing, when using quadratic probing, if we delete or remove an item from our hash table, we ...

An algorithm is developed which reduces the memory requirements of hash tables. This is achieved by storing only a part of each key along with a few extra bits needed to ensure that all keys are ...

Abstract: The linear-probing hash table is one of the oldest and most widely used data structures in computer science. However, linear probing also famously comes with a major drawback: as soon as the ...
