35 * This class implements a hash table, which maps keys to values. Any

42 * An instance of {@code Hashtable} has two parameters that affect its
43 * performance: <i>initial capacity</i> and <i>load factor</i>. The
44 * <i>capacity</i> is the number of <i>buckets</i> in the hash table, and the
45 * <i>initial capacity</i> is simply the capacity at the time the hash table
46 * is created. Note that the hash table is <i>open</i>: in the case of a "hash
47 * collision", a single bucket stores multiple entries, which must be searched
48 * sequentially. The <i>load factor</i> is a measure of how full the hash
49 * table is allowed to get before its capacity is automatically increased.
50 * The initial capacity and load factor parameters are merely hints to
51 * the implementation. The exact details as to when and whether the rehash
52 * method is invoked are implementation-dependent.<p>
