Question

(a) Assume static hashing is being used, load the records into the file and display the results. Assume that the file has 11 blocks, and that open addressing is used in the event of a collision. Also calculate the average number of accesses that would be required to retrieve each of record.

Answer 1

The Average number of access is 5/11 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you have a file that has 11 blocks then you will draw a line across the file to give pictures of column and rows.

This would definitely give you the average number of access that would be required to retrieve each record
