Suppose that to mitigate the effects of secondary clustering we use as the collisionresolution function f(i) = i r(hash(x)), where hash(x) is the 32-bit hash value(not yet scaled to a suitable array index), and r(y) = |48271y( mod (231 1))|mod TableSize. (Section 10.4.1 describes a method of performing this calculationwithout overflows, but it is unlikely that overflow matters in this case.) Explainwhy this strategy tends to avoid secondary clustering, and compare this strategywith both double hashing and quadratic probing
