Efficient way to hash a 2D point
问题 OK, so the task is this, I would be given (x, y) co-ordinates of points with both (x, y) ranging from -10^6 to 10^6 inclusive. I have to check whether a particular point e.g. (x, y) tuple was given to me or not. In simple words how do i answer the query whether a particular point(2D) is set or not. So far the best i could think of is maintaining a std::map<std::pair<int,int>, bool> and whenever a point is given I mark it 1. Although this must be running in logarithmic time and is fairly
