Build a properly sized map, especially handling load size and load factor to prevent immediate resizing.

Especially helpful for copy map contents.

Parameters:

size - The size to make the map.

Returns:

The sized map.

determineProperSizing

public static int determineProperSizing(Map original)

Given a map, determine the proper initial size for a new Map to hold the same number of values. Specifically we want to account for load size and load factor to prevent immediate resizing.

Parameters:

original - The original map

Returns:

The proper size.

determineProperSizing

public static int determineProperSizing(Set original)

Given a set, determine the proper initial size for a new set to hold the same number of values. Specifically we want to account for load size and load factor to prevent immediate resizing.

Parameters:

original - The original set

Returns:

The proper size.

determineProperSizing

public static int determineProperSizing(int numberOfElements)
