C Program To Implement Chain Hashing (Separate Chaining With Linked List)

  • Hash table will have 'n' number of buckets.
  • To insert a node into the hash table, we need to find the hash index for the given key.  And it could be calculated using the hash function.
                 Example:  hashIndex = key % noOfBuckets

  • Move to the bucket corresponds to the above calculated hash index and insert the new node at the end of the list.
  • To delete a node from hash table, get the key from the user, calculate the hash index, move to the bucket corresponds to the calculated hash index, search the list in the current bucket to find and remove the node with the given key. Finally, remove the node with given key, if it is present.

Hash table with 5 buckets.  0, 1,2,3 and 4 are the hash indexes
+-------+
|   0    |
+-------+
|   1    |
+-------+
|    2   |
+-------+
|   3    |
+-------+
|   4    |
+-------+

Insert a node with key 33 into the hash table.
hashIndex = 33 % 5(no of buckets)
hashIndex = 3
Hash index is 3.  So, insert the new node to the bucket with hash index 3.

+-------+
|   0    |
+-------+        -----------------         ------------------
|   1    |---->| 21 | data|   -|---->| 31 | data |   -|----->X
+-------+        -----------------          -----------------
|    2   |
+-------+       ------------------
|   3    |--->| 33 | data|      |--->X
+-------+       ------------------ 
|   4    |
+-------+

Delete a node with key 31 from the hash table.
hashIndex = 31 % 5(no of buckets) = 1
Move to the bucket with above calculated hash index(1), search the list in the current bucket(bucket with index 1)to find the node with given key and delete it.

+-------+
|   0    |
+-------+        -----------------         
|   1    |---->| 21 | data|   -|---->X
+-------+        -----------------   
|    2   |
+-------+       ------------------
|   3    |--->| 33 | data|      |--->X
+-------+       ------------------
