Description

Wrap the low-level implementations (min count sketch, hash tables for key iteration...) in a Counter interface. The goal is to make Counter <-> Bounter switch trivial for users.

Methods that cannot be implemented due to algorithmic constraints (key iteration with min count sketch etc) should raise a NotImplementedError with a clear error message.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing low level implementations (min count sketch, hash tables) and design a Counter interface that wraps them. For methods that cannot be implemented, raise NotImplementedError with a clear message.
