+/**
+ * A simple yet flexable hash-table.  This uses several tricks to help ensure
+ * that the table is always running at maximum efficiency.  You no longer have
+ * to specify a "danger fill level" when more space is needed a rehash is
+ * automatically trigered.  Deleting elements is fully supported, as well as
+ * duplicate elements.  To work with and allow duplicates simple construct your
+ * HashTable the way you normally would, but when deleting or getting elements
+ * you can specify a skip value.  This effectively allows you to treat elements
+ * with duplicate ID's as though they were in a zero-based array.  The first
+ * element inserted with a given ID would be at skip zero, the next at skip 1
+ * and so on.  This allows you to quickly search for elements with duplicate
+ * names, just stop when you get a null for a skip number, i.e.
+ * <pre>
+ *   for( int j = 0;; j++ )
+ *   {
+ *       void *pData = hash.get( myID, j );
+ *       if( !pData ) break;
+ *       // Do something interesting with pData
+ *   }
+ * </pre>
+ * There are new features in this HashTable that also allow for memory saving
+ * when dealing with systems where many elements are being deleted from the
+ * table.  In those cases the elements deleted cannot be simply deleted, instead
+ * they have to be marked as deleted and hidden from the user, but maintained in
+ * the table so that future hashing operations don't fail.  When rehashing
+ * occurs all elements marked as deleted are quietly removed.  In these cases,
+ * if the number of deleted items would free enough space in the table for the
+ * table to be used efficiently without resizing, it is left the same size and
+ * rehashing is performed effectively in place, allowing the deleted items to
+ * be removed.
+ * <br>
+ * For info on adding new hashing algorithms, please see the HashFunction class.
