Start learning about Hash tables

esjackso — Fri, 13 Sep 2013 16:38:56 GMT

I want to start learning more about using and applying Hash tables in the programming I do. Does anyone know of any good online resources / tutorials that could get me going on this topic?

Thanks!

Fingers faster than brain ... Hash objects is what I am referring too.

Peter Eberhardt gave a Hands-On Workshop at SAS a few years ago that I attended.

The exercises were clear and he emailed the data and programs out as well:

Thanks Reeza! I have attended some of Peter workshops in the past ... I will see if the data is still available!

There is a lot of repetition in this papers, but there are some hidden gems too.
