Imagine you are designing a spell checker application that needs to quickly determine whether a word is valid or not. How would you use a hash table to efficiently implement this functionality?
- Implement a linked list for word storage with a separate hash table for validity checks.
- Use a hash table with hash functions based on word characteristics to efficiently determine word validity.
- Utilize a binary search tree for efficient word validation in the spell checker.
- Utilize a hash table with words as keys and their corresponding validity status as values.
In this scenario, using a hash table with words as keys and their corresponding validity status as values would be efficient. The hash function should be designed to distribute words evenly, enabling quick retrieval and determination of word validity.
