NAME

       ght_create - create a new hash table


SYNOPSIS

       #include <ght_hash_table.h>

       ght_hash_table_t *ght_create(unsigned int i_size);


DESCRIPTION

       Create a new hash table with the size (number of buckets) i_size and
       return a pointer to it.

       The number of buckets should be about as big as the number of elements
       you wish to store in the table for good performance. The number of
       buckets is rounded to the next higher power of two.

       The hash table is created with ght_one_at_a_time_hash() as hash
       function, automatic rehashing disabled, malloc() as the memory
       allocator and no heuristics.
