Got to know it only recently and it's indeed very useful, even though it

Hey Benjamin,
Taking a guess with the information you've given perhaps a hash

Fast lookup/retrieval, but just have to consider what you would enumerate as
the key, and loading.
Let me know if you want some help applying this, memories of a

Hi all,

Python uses the term Dict to describe its built-in hash table. I do
think a hash table could be helpful, for example, to maintain the reverse
lookup mapping
Hmmm I'm not sure a BIOS will be wiling to boot from a USB port on a
card. However, combined with a CD boot helper might do the trick.
Reconditioning older PCs (even just adding RAM or a USB card) is a bit
of a thankless job :-(
I'm wondering if there's a way for SoaS to automatically report

Have you looked into an awk associative array? I understand it is
stored internally as a hash table. I remember reading about a
simulated multidimensional array (index,subscript); inserting a record
in that case didn't involve any reindexing.
Older awks were considered slow though, I have no idea

It also doesn't have insertion at all (only append), and indexing (and
reverse indexing) is O(n).

hash chaining only approaches order n if the table is very full (because of

Much more standard and simpler than the xpi framework, I think. Jetpacks
are html, javascript and css, expect you to use canvas and audio, with the
