QuickHashStringIntHash::update — This method updates an entry in the hash with a new value

### Description

public QuickHashStringIntHash::update(string `$key`, int `$value`): bool

This method updates an entry with a new value, and returns whether the entry was update. If there are duplicate keys, only the first found element will get an updated value. Use QuickHashStringIntHash::CHECK_FOR_DUPES during hash creation to prevent duplicate keys from being part of the hash.

### Parameters

`key`
  The key of the entry to update.
`value`
  The new value for the entry. If a non-string is passed, it will be converted to a string automatically if possible.

### Return Values

`true` when the entry was found and updated, and `false` if the entry was not part of the hash already.

### Examples

Example #1 QuickHashStringIntHash::update() example

`<?php
$hash = new QuickHashStringIntHash( 1024 );
$hash->add( 'six', 314159265 );
$hash->add( "a lot", 314159265 );
echo $hash->get( 'six' ), "\n";
echo $hash->get( 'a lot' ), "\n";
var_dump( $hash->update( 'a lot', 314159266 ) );
var_dump( $hash->update( "a lot plus one", 314159999 ) );
echo $hash->get( 'six' ), "\n";
echo $hash->get( 'a lot' ), "\n";
?>`

The above example will output something similar to:

    314159265
    314159265
    bool(true)
    bool(false)
    314159265
    314159266
