C - v.simple Hash Table functions - init(), lookup(), and insert() ONLY...easy stuff.

I need 3 very basic hash table functions - written in C and compiled using gcc: [login to view URL]() - to create a hash table [login to view URL]() - lookup item in the table and return a pointer to it if it's there, or a flag representing it's absence [login to view URL]() - insert item into table This is to be part of a lexical analysis program - the hash table holding the symbol table. i.e. when I have an identifier in the program I am analysing it will search the hash table for it's presence and insert it if absent. I don't need move, delete... functions, as identifiers only require one entry in a symbol table. The symbol table is for a subset of C so the identifiers are between 1 and 9 characters (inclusive, i.e. they can be 1 character, or up to 9), and can only include alphanumeric characters. Apart from that the hash table does not have to hold anything else - just the identifier itself. EXACT SPECS: =========== st_initialise() -> constructs and initialises the hash table (symbol table) accessed by a global variable. Initially contains an entry for every keyword in the language subset (eg. "while", WHILE) as a pair. Only include the while example - I'll add the others myself. token_t st_lookup(char *textname) -> looks up character string textname in symbol table & inserts it if not there. Returns associated token type (eg. WHILE if the lookup type is keyword, or IDENTIFIER if the lookup type is not a keyword like "while", but instead an identifier like "fred"). It then places a pointer to the symbol table entry in a global variable (this is finally going to be tokenvalue.p, but you can do it however you want - I'll change it later). st_entry *st_insert_string(char *textname, token_t tokentype) -> inserts a pair (textname, tokentype) into the hash table, and returns pointer to this entry. Any questions please let me know. This should be very straightforward and quick for you to do. A fast turn around time would be fantastic (eg. by tomorrow if possible). Please let me know how long this should take you when you bid. Thanks for reading.
