Multimap | Associative Array Database | Multimapping

A multimap system could be compared to solving algebraic formulas where the integer in question can be assigned an array of values to calculate specific outcomes. In the multimap example of route planning, using lists of map locations, the key database inputs are locations and the outputs of the multimap are directions to access those locations. In the case of route planning, planning a travel route is the context of the multimap, and the map locations are the database content that is manipulated. Both map and multimap are particular cases of manipulating containers of data. In route planning multimaps, database containers use specific lists of locations. In computer science, a container is defined as a class or data structure that is used for storing objects in specific ways. Often the multimap is implemented as a map with lists or sets as the map values, but multimaps can be used in a variety of contexts, for instance, tracking moods or other other health values. Sometimes a multmap is called a "multihash". Twitter can be considered a multimap function with hash tags being the data that is generalized as lists of particular tweets. Twitter can be considered a multimap function that contains databases of specific tweets.
