[algogeeks] which is the right data structure to use for a given problem ?

2011-12-24 Thread atul007
If you want to instant search a contact number of person from a phone
book.

one must be able to use any one of them to search(person name or
contact number).

for eg : given phone number as input it should return name of the
person

or

given name of the person as input it should return phone number of the
person.


we can use TRIE , but for that we have to maintain 2 different Trie

or

we can use hastable.

which one you guys think will be good approach for this???
