[REBOL] Re: hash questions
From: larry:ecotope at: 8-Jan-2002 12:26
Hi David,
Joel has already given an excellent overview of using the hash! datatype. I
just want to mention an additional issue with the hash! type.
AFAIK, Only strings and integers are hashed to provide fast search. So for a
block which contains consecutive key-value pairs, converting the block to a
hash will be a benefit only when the keys are either integers or strings.
Does anyone know if other REBOL datatypes can be hashed?
