<p>tables must be able to handle <a href="page.php?w=hash_collision">collisions</a>: the mapping by the hash function of two different keys to the same bucket of the array. The two most widespread approaches to this problem are <a href="page.php?w=separate_chaining">separate chaining</a> and <a href="page.php?w=open_addressing">open addressing</a>. In separate chaining, the array does not store the value itself but stores a <a href="page.php?w=Pointer_%28computer_programming%29">pointer</a> to another container, usually an <a href="page.php?w=association_list">association list</a>,</p><p>
