Hashtable Constructor ()
Initializes a new, empty instance of the Hashtable class using the default initial capacity and the default load factor.
Namespace: System.Collections
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
public Hashtable ()
Remarks
The default inititial capacity is 4.
The load factor is the maximum ratio of elements to buckets. A smaller load factor means faster lookup at the cost of increased memory consumption. The default value is 2.
When the actual load factor reaches the maximum load factor, the number of buckets is automatically increased to the smallest prime number that is larger than twice the current number of buckets.
Version Information
Available in the .NET Micro Framework version 4.1.
