title: Java HashTable LoadFactor
body: <p>The Java Hashtable has a constructor where you can specify a loadFactor. However, if the initialCapacity (n) is known, what's the point of specifying the loadFactor?</p>
  
  <p>Assuming that the size of its array of buckets (s) is constant, does the constructor  <code>Hashtable(int initialCapacity, float loadFactor)</code>
  just create a Hash Table that has more capacity than initialCapacity to ensure the correct loadFactor?</p>
