offerHashed

[jeet27...@gmail.com]

Hi,

offerHashed method in HyperLogLog returns boolean(false) does it mean that newly added hash value is duplicate?

Thanks

[Matt Abrams]

The ICardinality interface defines the contract:

/**
* Offer the value as a hashed long value
*
* @param hashedLong - the hash of the item to offer to the estimator
* @return false if the value returned by cardinality() is unaffected
by the appearance of hashedLong in the stream
*/
boolean offerHashed(long hashedLong);

correct, but HyperLogLogPlus is returning true for all (even duplicates).

Can you provide a test case that demonstrates that?  The original question was re HyperLogLog.  Do you see the same behavior from both?
