I'm drawing a blank here; I can't find it, unless I'm really overlooking something under my nose.
I'm trying to store a list of int
s in a data structure.
But after I add them, I will later in code check if an int
exists in the list already.
The generic List<int>
does an O(n) operation with its Contains()
.
I want something that works as fast as Dictionary<>
's Contains()
, which does an O(1) operation because it hashes the keys.
I know the answer is something so simple and that I've worked for too long today I can't remember it.
Help!
