{wiki=Hopscotch_hashing}
Hopscotch hashing is a dynamic, open-addressing hash table algorithm designed to efficiently resolve collisions and maintain quick access to entries. It is particularly useful for applications requiring fast average-case lookup times, even with a high load factor in the hash table. Here are the key features and workings of hopscotch hashing: 1. **Basic Concept**: Like traditional hashing, hopscotch hashing uses a hash function to map keys to indices in the hash table.
