[Year 12 SofDev] Reading the study design

[Collinson, Duane A]

Hi Mark



I interpreted this as dictionaries and hash tables are synonyms for associative arrays.



Could see another way of teaching this KK.



Cheers

Maybe someone can help with this, or it might require Paula.

In SD U4O1 KK2 it refers to "uses of data structures to organise and manipulate data, including associative arrays (or dictionaries or hash tables)"

I'm not sure how to interpret the 'or's after 'including'. Does it mean"
- dictionaries and hash tables are synonyms for associative arrays?
- we may choose between dictionaries and hash tables and associative arrays?

Neither of those makes much sense.
What does it mean in terms of teaching KK?

Regards
Mark
