    Hi,

    I'm learning about hashmaps and I'm curious about what the boolean returned by TryAdd and TryGetValue for a NativeHashMap represent. If I were to guess TryAdd returns false if an item is already present for a key and TryGetValue returns false when a value isn't present for a given key, but I'm not sure.

    Thanks for the help.
