== Operations == === Insert === To insert a key-value pair into the hash table, the hash function is applied to the key, and the value is stored at the corresponding index in the array. If a collision occurs, the chosen collision resolution technique is applied. === Lookup === To look up a value by its key, the hash function is applied to the key to find the corresponding index in the array. If a collision resolution technique is used, it may be necessary to search through the data structure at the index to find the correct value. === Delete === To delete a key-value pair, the hash function is applied to the key to find the corresponding index in the array. The value is then removed from the array or the data structure at the index. If a collision resolution technique is used, it may be necessary to search through the data structure at the index to find the correct value to delete.
