Hashtable Put and Get function

#1

In the put function,we are creating an object ‘pta’ for eg at address 85k and adding it to the linkedlist and for the get function we are creating another object ‘ptf’ but it will be made on another address na like 70k and yet how can we check on the linked list to find an object at 70k and yet get a result?

Hi @ap8730390,
Actually the find method defination is given in linkedList class which is this

public int find(T data) {
	int index = 0;
	for (Node temp = this.head; temp != null; temp = temp.next) {
		if (temp.data.equals(data)) {
			return index;
		}
		index++;
	}

	return -1;
}

This function uses equals method to compare and equal checks the content of the given two objects not the address hence even if the address is different we get the correct answer.
Hope this helps
