Research direction

The issue names no source file, test, or entry point, so first locate the TypeScript implementation and existing test structure in the repository. Define how arbitrary keys are compared by value and supported in constant time, then verify JavaScript Map-like behavior, value-based equality, and constant-time get and has operations.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This map class must have the following properties

  • Similar API to JavaScript's Map class
  • Allow anything to be a key
  • Match keys by value and not by reference (ex: [1] should equal [1])
  • get should work in constant time
  • has should work in constant time
