```
# Examples
## BloomFilter
A Bloom filter is a space-efficient probabilistic data structure, conceived by Burton Howard
Bloom in 1970, that is used to test whether an element is a member of a set. False positive
matches are possible, but false negatives are not.
**Reference**: Bloom, B. H. (1970). Space/time trade-offs in hash coding with allowable errors.
Communications of the ACM, 13(7), 422-426.

### Python
basic usage
```python
from fastbloom_rs import BloomFilter
bloom = BloomFilter(100_000_000, 0.01)
bloom.add_str('hello')
bloom.add_bytes(b'world')
bloom.add_int(9527)
assert bloom.contains('hello')
assert bloom.contains(b'world')
assert bloom.contains(9527)
assert not bloom.contains('hello world')
```
build bloom filter from bytes or list
```python
from fastbloom_rs import BloomFilter
bloom = BloomFilter(100_000_000, 0.01)
bloom.add_str('hello')
assert bloom.contains('hello')
bloom2 = BloomFilter.from_bytes(bloom.get_bytes(), bloom.hashes())
assert bloom2.contains('hello')
bloom3 = BloomFilter.from_int_array(bloom.get_int_array(), bloom.hashes())
assert bloom3.contains('hello')
```

### Rust
```rust
use fastbloom_rs::{BloomFilter, FilterBuilder};
let mut bloom = FilterBuilder::new(100_000_000, 0.01).build_bloom_filter();
bloom.add(b"helloworld");
assert_eq!(bloom.contains(b"helloworld"), true);
assert_eq!(bloom.contains(b"helloworld!"), false);
```

## CountingBloomFilter
A Counting Bloom filter works in a similar manner as a regular Bloom filter; however, it is
able to keep track of insertions and deletions. In a counting Bloom filter, each entry in the
Bloom filter is a small counter associated with a basic Bloom filter bit.
**Reference**: F. Bonomi, M. Mitzenmacher, R. Panigrahy, S. Singh, and G. Varghese, “An Improved
Construction for Counting Bloom Filters,” in 14th Annual European Symposium on
Algorithms, LNCS 4168, 2006
### Python
```python
from fastbloom_rs import CountingBloomFilter
cbf = CountingBloomFilter(1000_000, 0.01)
cbf.add('hello')
cbf.add('hello')
assert 'hello' in cbf
cbf.remove('hello')
assert 'hello' in cbf # because 'hello' added twice.
# If add same element larger than 15 times, then remove 15 times the filter will not contain the element.
cbf.remove('hello')
assert 'hello' not in cbf
```
A CountingBloomFilter has a four bits counter to save hash index, so when insert an
element repeatedly, the counter will spill over quickly. So, you can set
`enable_repeat_insert` to `False` to check whether the element has added.
if it has added, it will not add again. `enable_repeat_insert` default set to `True`.
```python
from fastbloom_rs import CountingBloomFilter
cbf = CountingBloomFilter(1000_000, 0.01, False)
cbf.add('hello')
cbf.add('hello') # because enable_repeat_insert=False, this addition will not take effect.
assert 'hello' in cbf
cbf.remove('hello')
assert 'hello' not in cbf
```

### Rust
```rust
use fastbloom_rs::{CountingBloomFilter, FilterBuilder};
let mut builder = FilterBuilder::new(100_000, 0.01);
let mut cbf = builder.build_counting_bloom_filter();
cbf.add(b"helloworld");
assert_eq!(bloom.contains(b"helloworld"), true);
```
