Robin Hood Hashing #1576

Closed Sarthak3K closed 5 months ago

Sarthak3K commented 1 year ago

Dear repository maintainers,

I would like to propose the addition of the Robin Hood Hashing algorithm to the repository. Robin Hood Hashing is a powerful hashing technique that offers efficient key-value storage and retrieval operations. It would be a valuable addition to the project's collection of algorithms.

I propose implementing the Robin Hood Hashing algorithm in the following programming languages:

C C++ Java Python

Robin Hood Hashing provides a balanced approach to resolving collisions in hash tables, resulting in improved performance compared to other open addressing techniques. It minimizes the variance in probe sequence lengths, ensuring that the search, insertion, and deletion operations have more consistent and predictable time complexity.

By using Robin Hood Hashing, we can achieve faster key-value lookups in scenarios where collisions are likely to occur. This makes it suitable for applications that require efficient hash tables, such as database indexing, symbol tables, and associative arrays.

I am enthusiastic about contributing to this feature and would be honored to take ownership of this issue. I am committed to ensuring the algorithm's accurate implementation, conducting thorough testing, and providing comprehensive documentation for each language implementation.

Kindly assign this issue to me, and I will immediately start working on it. I am excited to collaborate with the community and make a valuable contribution to the project.

Thank you!

Best regards, Sarthak (Ssoc'23)
