This library is used to model the availability of tradespersons in a data structure that can be used in the presentation layer of the application.
The data structure was designed for
- efficient lookup
- ease of use where a tabular design is used by the presentation layer to display availability
The concept of the data structure is based on a table where the columns are days and the rows are hours of the day. It's structure however is a map having keys that are hashes of the coordinates of the timeslot on the table. The values in the map are buckets containing whatever the application uses to identify the individuals that are available during the given timeslot.
