Open Addressing:

  • Open Addressing is a method of finding an open location in the hash table at the time of collision.
  • There are several variations for open addressing such as linear probing, quadratic probing, and double hashing.

Quadratic Probing:

  • Quadratic probing is one other variation of open addressing.
  • It is introduced to avoid the clustering problem in linear probing.
  • Quadratic probing will look at the cells at indices (k + j2) % n, for j ≥ 0, i.e., k, (k + 1) % n, (k + 4) % n, (k + 9) % n, ..., and so on.
  • Starting from the initial index, quadratic probing will add an increment of 2 to k to define a search sequence.

Asap, i will rate positive for correct , else negative rate.
A linear probing hash table of length 10 uses the hash function h(x) = x mod 10 + 1. mod is the reminder operator. For example the h(42) = 42 mod 10 + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3 so we insert 42 in the position 3 in the array. After inserting 6 integer keys into an initially empty hash table, the array of keys is…
Consider a simple hash function as "key mod 8" and a sequence of keys as 75, 89, 42, 58, 94, 38, 32, 21. What will be the final sequence if you insert those keys in an array of size 8 using linear probe.
