How is collision detection implemented in the Map implementation?

The implementation of map in Go uses chaining with linked lists or alternative structures within hash buckets to detect collisions.

When inserting a key, a hash is computed and a bucket (array cell) is determined. If this bucket already contains elements (collision), new elements are added to the linked list or another structure within that bucket.

During key search in a bucket, keys are compared sequentially using a comparison function (usually == for basic types or the Equal method for complex types) to find the desired element.

Thus, collisions do not lead to data loss but are handled by storing multiple elements in one bucket and sequentially searching through them.
