I’m getting a “Generic array creation” error. #

Be sure to instantiate your buckets table with new Collection[size] or (Collection<Node>[]) new Object[size]!

Failing edge cases #

The Bee class has some strange equals and hashCode implementations. If you’re stuck on this test, use the debugger to see what values are expected from the reference map, which is Java’s built-in HashMap. Walking through the expected behavior by hand may help as well.

Some things to think about:

The reference map has some (maybe) unexpected behaviors. Why does the reference map behave the way it does (remember equals and hashCode!)? Does your map behave the same way?
