1. Overview
This package collects various clones of the canonical Cedar hash table package. Unfortunately, we didn't get this organized until rather late in the game, so not every clone is collected here; see also BootPackages, CardHashTableThreaded, CardTable, IntChainedHashTable, IntToIntTab, and maybe some others I can't think of right now. The clones appearing here are:
Name  Domain  Range  
CardToCardTab CARD  CARD 
Card2Tab  array[0..1]CARD REF ANY 
Card4Tab  array[0..3]CARD REF ANY 
IntHashTable INT  REF ANY 
SymToIntTab ROPE  INT
