>Again, the problem is that people sticking with "what the author has actually said" will not learn how hash tables actually work.
Huh? People are complaining about the implementation not having collision detection. The author clearly lays out what collisions are, why they are required and also that they need to be dealt with. Did you read the article?
>Yes, people use common sense to learn -- and to understand what they are learning. How is this not obvious?
It would help if you didn't change the context and scope of what I have said. I am not talking about some random topic that you can derive through first principles or common sense or other logical means. To me its obvious you didn't understand what I meant or what I was replying to. Its pointless to argue further and derail the thread.
>Not even sure what you're trying to defend exactly. Sloppy examples?
Not to sound gratuitously rude, but if you don't know what my point is, why not ask me first?
