A hash code is a numeric value that is used to insert and identify an object in a hash-based collection such as the Dictionary<TKey, TValue> class, the Hashtable class, or a type derived from the DictionaryBase class.
Hashing means using some function or algorithm to map object data to some representative integer value. This so-called hash code (or simply hash) can then be used as a way to narrow down our search when looking for the item in the map.n this and the following pages, we explore hashing, a technique used (among other applications) to implement Java's common map and set classes.
