i have to impliment a chained hash table. in this prog i am using java.util.LinkedList.
in one node of linklise i have to store two object--
1)key value
2)value
but java.util.LinkedList. provide add(object) method. that means i can not add two elements in one node of linked list.
then how to implement it ??
please suggest.
thanks
i am using array of linked list
Since that class's add method takes one argument, you will have to merge all the objects you want to save in the list into a single class that you can put into the list.
In your design, how will you find and retrieve the value for a key passed to your class?
It's possible to be inspired by the way Java solves the problem in HashMap. They create a class: http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/Map.Entry.html
