NAME
    cuckoo - Cuckoo Hash library

DESCRIPTION
    This module provides a simple interface to the Cuckoo Hash,
    an efficient sparse array implementation.
    
    Cuckoo Hashing was proposed by Pagh and Rodler (2001). The idea is to
    build a dictionary data structure with two hash tables and two different
    hash functions.

CLASSES
    __builtin__.object
        cuckoohash
    
    class cuckoohash(__builtin__.object)
     |  cuckoohash() -> new empty Cuckoo Hash table
     |  
     |  cuckoohash(size=n) -> Create a new Cuckoo Hash table with 
     |      initial size n. 
     |      Note: the table will automatically grow as needed.
     |  cuckoohash(seq=seq) -> Create a new Cuckoo Hash table as if via:
     |      c = cuckoohash()
     |      for k, v in seq: c[k] = v
