Suppose that we wish to implement a dynamic, open-address hash table. Why might we consider the table

Question:

Suppose that we wish to implement a dynamic, open-address hash table. Why might we consider the table to be full when its load factor reaches some value α that is strictly less than 1? Describe briefly how to make insertion into a dynamic, open-address hash table run in such a way that the expected value of the amortized cost per insertion is O(1). Why is the expected value of the actual cost per insertion not necessarily O(1) for all insertions?
