9.13 Lab: Hashing - Linear Probe (insert, search, delete)
Reuse code from the previous lab and write new code as described below:

- search hash: Modify this function to return -1 if the target key is not found or the number of collisions for that key if found.

`int search(Student &target, string key);`

- remove hash: Create a new function to delete an item from the hash table.
- insert manager: inserts user provided data into the hash table and rejects duplicates.

9.12 Lab: Hashing - Linear Probe (insert, search)
Hash Function: Add the ASCII values of all characters in the key string and return the reminder obtained when divided by the size of the table.

Example: If key = "Bob", and size = 53, we get (66 + 111 + 98) % 53 => 275 % 53 => 10.

Collision Resolution Method: Linear Probe.

The assignment consists of the following classes/files:

- main.cpp (incomplete)
- Student.h (given)
- HashNode.h (given)
- HashTable.h (given)
- HashTable.cpp (incomplete)

Read and understand the given code then write two functions:

- insert hash
- search hash
