Hello Jason,

Much better efficiency in what way?
instead of going through many levels of tree/trie, lookup function will just select array element by hash value and look through a few elements in assoc list:
data HT a b = HT (a->Int) -- hash function (Array Int [(a,b)])
HT.lookup (HT hash arr) a = List.lookup (arr!hash a) a Which makes two assumptions. One is that your array is big enough (believable), and the other, that your font is big enough.
