Std.HashMap.bucketCount

1 declaration

fn

bucketCount: &Std.HashMap.HashMap[K, V] -> Int where K: Eq + Hash

This is a callable function.

What it does

How many buckets the map is currently spread across.

For a program measuring how well its keys distribute, not for one deciding

what to do: a bucket count is a fact about the seed and the keys together,

and it changes between runs even for the same keys.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
  • & borrows a value for this call instead of moving or copying it.
  • Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
