baxy77bax has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
hi,
i have a bit technical question. hashing in Perl is a very practical tool, but now i'm interested to learn a bit more about it. what type of hashing stands behind the hash 'function', is it a "General Hash Function Algorithms 0.0.1" or... where can i learn more about Perl hashing (and i don't mean how to hash some data but rather what happens when i hash a string of characters, integer... , what is the complexity of retrieving hash data and so on...). thank you baxy Update: ok thank you when i study recommended references i'll come back with more questions thank you
