Introduction to Gperf

GNU gperf is a program that generates perfect hash functions for sets of keywords. A perfect hash function is a hash function and a data structure that allows recognition of a key word in a set of words using exactly 1 probe into the data structure. Output from the GPERF program is used to recognize reserved words in the GNU C, GNU C++, and GNU Pascal compilers, as well as with the GNU indent program.
