The new algorithm uses only one formula and needs no additional bias corrections for the entire range of cardinalities, therefore, it is more efficient and simpler to implement. Our simulations show that the accuracy provided by the new algorithm is as good as or better than the accuracy provided by either of HyperLogLog or HyperLogLog++. The sparse representation was kept in to provide better low cardinality accuracy. However the linear counting and range estimations are replaced. |

pkg/ is a collection of utility packages used by the InfluxDB project without being specific to its internals.
Utility packages are kept separate from the InfluxDB core codebase to keep it as small and concise as possible. If some utilities grow larger and their APIs stabilize, they may be moved to their own repository under the InfluxDB organization, to facilitate re-use by other projects. However that is not the priority.
Because utility packages are small and neatly separated from the rest of the codebase, they are a good place to start for aspiring maintainers and contributors. Get in touch if you want to help maintain them!
