This volume, divided in two parts, provides a strong foundation for hashing, hash functions, and their application in the context of software development.
While the programming language used in this... More > book is Smalltalk, the information provided applies to other programming languages as well.
The first part develops hashing and hash functions from first principles. The behavior characteristics required of hash functions are examined in detail. A thorough description of how hash functions are constructed follows, complete with a rich survey of existing hash functions.
However, existing hash functions are often inappropriate for the task at hand. To address this problem, the second part shows how to build novel hash functions that are both efficient and highly effective for the range of data types that occur in practice.
The book includes over 230 exercises. Together with their answers, provided in an appendix, these exercises further develop the material in both familiar and new ways.< Less
This book is intended for anyone who is learning programming for the first time. The main goal is to teach fundamental programming principles using Pascal, a popular programming language in schools.... More > However, the emphasis is more on programming basics than on Pascal.
Basic programming proficiency requires that you know, at least, the following: the primitive data types of the language (integer, floating-point, character); how to write input/output statements; how to write conditional statements (if, if...else); how to write looping statements (while, for); how to write functions and how to declare and use arrays. But, more importantly, you need to be able to write programs to solve problems using these features. This book explains all of the above in an easy, conversational style.
The only way to learn programming well is to write programs. The end-of-chapter exercises are a very rich source of problems, a result of the author’s more than 30 years in the teaching of programming.< Less
