A Hash Table is a dictionary in which keys are mapped to array positions by a hash function (A function that maps keys to integers, usually to get an even distribution on a smaller set of values). Having more than one key map to the same position is called a collision. There are many ways to resolve collisions, but they may be divided into open addressing, in which all elements are kept within the table, and chaining, in which additional data structures are used.
