blue_cowdawg's code
my @i = split(//,$url); # put each letter in it's own bin
my $j=0; # Initailize our
my $k=1; # hashing increment values
my @m=(); # workspace
foreach my $n(@i){
my $q=ord($n); # ASCII for character
$k += $j; # Increment our hash offset
$q += $k; # add our "old" value
$j = $k; # store that.
push @m,$q; # save the offsetted value
}
my $hashval=0; #initialize our hash value
# Generate that
map { $hashval = ($hashval + $_) % 100000} @m;
Is this the solution i seek to turn an 'absolute path' <=> '5-digit number' ?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
