### Examples

Example #1 QuickHashIntHash::exists() example

`<?php
//generate 200000 elements
$array = range( 0, 199999 );
$existingEntries = array_rand( array_flip( $array ), 180000 );
$testForEntries = array_rand( array_flip( $array ), 1000 );
$foundCount = 0;
echo "Creating hash: ", microtime( true ), "\n";
$hash = new QuickHashIntHash( 100000 );
echo "Adding elements: ", microtime( true ), "\n";
foreach( $existingEntries as $key )
{
$hash->add( $key, 56 );
}
echo "Doing 1000 tests: ", microtime( true ), "\n";
foreach( $testForEntries as $key )
{
$foundCount += $hash->exists( $key );
}
echo "Done, $foundCount found: ", microtime( true ), "\n";
?>`

The above example will output something similar to:

    Creating hash: 1263588703.0748
    Adding elements: 1263588703.0757
    Doing 1000 tests: 1263588703.7851
