hash-table,

- Description:
-
Hash tables provide a way of mapping any object (a key)
to an associated object (a value).

Section 18.1 Hash Table Concepts,
Section 22.1.3.13 Printing Other Objects
- Notes:
-
The intent is that this mapping be implemented by a hashing mechanism,
such as that described in Section 6.4 "Hashing" of The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 3
(pp506-549). In spite of this intent, no conforming implementation
is required to use any particular technique to implement the mapping.
