Next, we will implement the get method to retrieve a value given a key with the following code:
get(key) { const position = this.hashCode(key); const linkedList = this.table[position]; // {1} if (linkedList != null && !linkedList.isEmpty()) { // {2} let current = linkedList.getHead(); // {3} while (current != null) { // {4} if (current.element.key === key) { // {5} return current.element.value; // {6} } current = current.next; // {7} } } return undefined; // {8}}
The first verification we need to do is to check whether there is any value at the desired position. To do this, we retrieve the linkedList at the hash position ({1}) and we verify whether there is an instance of the linkedList or if it is empty ({2}). If there is ...
