The psuedocode (below in bold) is included after #4 "Steps for completion" .

Develop an algorithm to search and remove data from a hash table using the open addressing technique. Aim: Implement a hash table using open addressing with linear probing.

To solve this activity, you have to implement the following methods in the OpenAddrHashTable.java file:

 public void put(K key, V value) { //... } private int searchPosition(K key) { //... } public void remove(K key) { //... } public Optional get(K key) { //... }

Steps for Completion

1. Study the pseudocode shown in Snippet 3.3 and Snippet 3.4 (shown below) and implement them in Java.
2. The container class OpenAddrPair will hold your key and value in the hash table.
3. Have a flag on this container to indicate when an item is deleted.
4. Use this flag in the put operation to overwrite it if it is deleted. You can use this flag to optimize your get method using the filter method.

insert(key, value, array) s = length(array) hashValue = hash(key, s) i = 0 while (i < s and array[(hashValue + i) mod s] != null) i = i + l if (i < s) array[(hashValue + i) mod s] = (key, value)

search(key, array) s = length(array) hashValue = hash(key, s) i = 0 while (i < s and array[(hashValue + i) mod s] != null and array[(hashValue + i) mod s].key != key) i = i + 1 keyValue = array[(hashValue + i) mod s] if (keyValue != null && keyValue.key == key) return keyValue.value else return null

Tasks

New OpenAddrHashTable objects are empty.

1 Implement the following methods in the OpenAddrHashTable class:

1. put
2. searchPosition
3. get
4. remove

Code given:

import java.util.Optional;

public class OpenAddrHashTable implements HashTable { private final HashProvider hashProvider; private Pair[] array;

public OpenAddrHashTable(int capacity, HashProvider hashProvider) { array = new Pair[capacity]; this.hashProvider = hashProvider; }

public void put(K key, V value) { // write your code here }

private int searchPosition(K key) { // write your code here }

public void remove(K key) { // write your code here }

public Optional get(K key) { // write your code here return Optional.empty(); } }
