Hash Table Procedures

make-hash-table

[procedure] (make-hash-table [TEST HASH SIZE] [#:test TEST] [#:hash HASH] [#:size SIZE] [#:initial INITIAL] [#:min-load MIN-LOAD] [#:max-load MAX-LOAD] [#:weak-keys WEAK-KEYS] [#:weak-values WEAK-VALUES])

Returns a new HASH-TABLE with the supplied configuration.

TEST
The equivalence function.
HASH
The hash function.
SIZE
The expected number of table elements.
INITIAL
The default initial value.
MIN-LOAD
The minimum load factor. A flonum in (0.0 1.0).
MAX-LOAD
The maximum load factor. A flonum in (0.0 1.0).
WEAK-KEYS
Use weak references for keys. (Ignored)
WEAK-VALUES
Use weak references for values. (Ignored)

alist->hash-table

[procedure] (alist->hash-table A-LIST [#:test TEST] [#:hash HASH] [#:size SIZE] [#:initial INITIAL] [#:min-load MIN-LOAD] [#:max-load MAX-LOAD] [#:weak-keys WEAK-KEYS] [#:weak-values WEAK-VALUES])

Returns a new HASH-TABLE. The HASH-TABLE is populated from the A-LIST. The keyword arguments are per make-hash-table.

hash-table?

[procedure] (hash-table? OBJECT)

Is the OBJECT a hash-table?

hash-table-size

[procedure] (hash-table-size HASH-TABLE)

The HASH-TABLE size.

hash-table-equivalence-function

[procedure] (hash-table-equivalence-function HASH-TABLE)

The HASH-TABLE equivalence-function.

hash-table-hash-function

[procedure] (hash-table-hash-function HASH-TABLE)

The HASH-TABLE hash-function.

hash-table-min-load

[procedure] (hash-table-min-load HASH-TABLE)

The HASH-TABLE minimum load factor.

hash-table-max-load

[procedure] (hash-table-max-load HASH-TABLE)

The HASH-TABLE maximum load factor.

hash-table-weak-keys

[procedure] (hash-table-weak-keys HASH-TABLE)

Does the HASH-TABLE weak references for keys?

hash-table-weak-values

[procedure] (hash-table-weak-values HASH-TABLE)

Does the HASH-TABLE weak references for values?

hash-table-has-initial?

[procedure] (hash-table-has-initial? HASH-TABLE)

Does the HASH-TABLE have a default initial value?

hash-table-initial

[procedure] (hash-table-initial HASH-TABLE)

The HASH-TABLE default initial value.

hash-table-keys

[procedure] (hash-table-keys HASH-TABLE)

Returns a list of the keys in the HASH-TABLE population.

hash-table-values

[procedure] (hash-table-values HASH-TABLE)

Returns a list of the values in the HASH-TABLE population.

hash-table->alist

[procedure] (hash-table->alist HASH-TABLE)

Returns the population of the HASH-TABLE as an a-list.

hash-table-ref

[procedure] (hash-table-ref HASH-TABLE KEY)

Returns the VALUE for the KEY in the HASH-TABLE.

Aborts with an exception when the KEY is missing.

hash-table-ref/default

[procedure] (hash-table-ref/default HASH-TABLE KEY DEFAULT)

Returns the VALUE for the KEY in the HASH-TABLE, or the DEFAULT when the KEY is missing.

hash-table-exists?

[procedure] (hash-table-exists? HASH-TABLE KEY)

Does the KEY exist in the HASH-TABLE?

hash-table-set!

[procedure] (hash-table-set! HASH-TABLE KEY VALUE)

Set the VALUE for the KEY in the HASH-TABLE.

A setter for hash-table-ref is defined, so

(set! (hash-table-ref HASH-TABLE KEY) VALUE)

is equivalent to

(hash-table-set! HASH-TABLE KEY VALUE)

hash-table-update!

[procedure] (hash-table-update! HASH-TABLE KEY [UPDATE-FUNCTION [DEFAULT-VALUE-FUNCTION]])

Sets or replaces the VALUE for KEY in the HASH-TABLE.

The UPDATE-FUNCTION takes the existing VALUE for KEY and returns the new VALUE. The default is identity

The DEFAULT-VALUE-FUNCTION is called when the entry for KEY is missing. The default uses the (hash-table-initial-value), if provided. Otherwise aborts with an exception.

Returns the new VALUE.

hash-table-update!/default

[procedure] (hash-table-update! HASH-TABLE KEY UPDATE-FUNCTION DEFAULT-VALUE)

Sets or replaces the VALUE for KEY in the HASH-TABLE.

The UPDATE-FUNCTION takes the existing VALUE for KEY and returns the new VALUE.

The DEFAULT-VALUE is used when the entry for KEY is missing.

Returns the new VALUE.

hash-table-copy

[procedure] (hash-table-copy HASH-TABLE)

Returns a shallow copy of the HASH-TABLE.

hash-table-delete!

[procedure] (hash-table-delete! HASH-TABLE KEY)

Deletes the entry for KEY in the HASH-TABLE.

hash-table-remove!

[procedure] (hash-table-remove! HASH-TABLE PROC)

Calls PROC for all entries in HASH-TABLE with the key and value of each entry. If PROC returns true, then that entry is removed.

hash-table-clear!

[procedure] (hash-table-clear! HASH-TABLE)

Deletes all entries in HASH-TABLE.

hash-table-merge

[procedure] (hash-table-merge HASH-TABLE-1 HASH-TABLE-2)

Returns a new HASH-TABLE with the union of HASH-TABLE-1 and HASH-TABLE-2.

hash-table-merge!

[procedure] (hash-table-merge! HASH-TABLE-1 HASH-TABLE-2)

Returns HASH-TABLE-1 as the union of HASH-TABLE-1 and HASH-TABLE-2.

hash-table-map

[procedure] (hash-table-map HASH-TABLE FUNC)

Calls FUNC for all entries in HASH-TABLE with the key and value of each entry.

Returns a list of the results of each call.

hash-table-fold

[procedure] (hash-table-fold HASH-TABLE FUNC INIT)

Calls FUNC for all entries in HASH-TABLE with the key and value of each entry, and the current folded value. The initial folded value is INIT.

Returns the final folded value.

hash-table-for-each

[procedure] (hash-table-for-each HASH-TABLE PROC)

Calls PROC for all entries in HASH-TABLE with the key and value of each entry.

hash-table-walk

[procedure] (hash-table-walk HASH-TABLE PROC)

Calls PROC for all entries in HASH-TABLE with the key and value of each entry.

Hashing Functions

All hash functions return a fixnum in the range [0 BOUND).
