• When you initialize the has thable, you only need to set the status field of each entry, the the sval field.
• When inserting into the hash table, both the string pointer and the value is copied from the passed stringval, e.g.
  htp[pos].sval.str = sval.str;
  htp[pos].sval.val = sval.val;
  This can also be done with:
  htp[pos].sval = sval;
  
• hashinit must use a malloc in some form. If you use a static array it does not allow for multiple hash tables.
• Strings must be compared using strcmp or something similar. Do not just compare pointers.
