Instructions

Three examples:

Input:

number$\_$of$\_$slots $=3$

values $=[1,3,5,7,9]$

find$\_$item $=3$

Output: $$

Explanation: after hashing$/$adding all values, the table would look as follows: $\left[\begin{array}{cc}3& 9\\ 1& 7\\ 5& ?\end{array}\right].$ The item we are looking for is $3,$ which is found in the first slot or index $0,$ and hence the output is $0.$

Input:

number$\_$of$\_$slot $=5$

values $=[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]$

find$\_$item $=7$

Output: $2$

Explanation: after hashing$/$adding all values, the table would look as follows: $,8],[4,9].$ The item we are looking for is $7,$ which is found at index $2($i$.$e$.$ the slot containing $2$ and $7).$

Input:

number$\_$of$\_$slots $=5$

values $=[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]$

find$\_$item $=100$
