Now that we have our hashCode function, we can implement the put method, as follows:
put(key, value) { if (key != null && value != null) { // {1} const position = this.hashCode(key); // {2} this.table[position] = new ValuePair(key, value); // {3} return true; } return false;}
The put method has a similar logic as the set method from the Dictionary class. We could name this method set as well, however, most of the programming languages use the put method for the HashTable data structure, so we will follow the same naming convention.
First, we will verify whether the key and value are valid ({1}), and in case they are not valid, we return false to indicate the value was not added (or updated). For ...
