Program Plan Intro

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.
