- Method Detail
  - hashValue
```
int hashValue(E e,
              int i)
```
    Reports the hash value for a given value and probe index
    
    Parameters:
    
    e - the element whose has value is to be provided
    
    i - the index of probe for which a has value is being returned
    
    Returns:
    
    the hash value for this element
    
    Precondition: An element e of type E and an integer i, between one and the size of the hash table being supported, have been given as input.
    Postcondition: The hash value for e and i — an integer between zero and one less than the size of the hash table being supported — has been returned as output.
