From hv.h:
/* hash a key */ /* FYI: This is the "One-at-a-Time" algorithm by Bob Jenkins * from requirements by Colin Plumb. * (http://burtleburtle.net/bob/hash/doobs.html) */ /* The use of a temporary pointer and the casting games * is needed to serve the dual purposes of * (a) the hashed data being interpreted as "unsigned char" (new since + 5.8, * a "char" can be either signed or unsigned, depending on the com +piler) * (b) catering for old code that uses a "char" * * The "hash seed" feature was added in Perl 5.8.1 to perturb the resu +lts * to avoid "algorithmic complexity attacks". * * If USE_HASH_SEED is defined, hash randomisation is done by default * If USE_HASH_SEED_EXPLICIT is defined, hash randomisation is done * only if the environment variable PERL_HASH_SEED is set. * For maximal control, one can define PERL_HASH_SEED. * (see also perl.c:perl_parse()). */ #ifndef PERL_HASH_SEED # if defined(USE_HASH_SEED) || defined(USE_HASH_SEED_EXPLICIT) # define PERL_HASH_SEED PL_hash_seed # else # define PERL_HASH_SEED 0 # endif #endif #define PERL_HASH(hash,str,len) \ STMT_START { \ register const char * const s_PeRlHaSh_tmp = str; \ register const unsigned char *s_PeRlHaSh = (const unsigned char *) +s_PeRlHaSh_tmp; \ register I32 i_PeRlHaSh = len; \ register U32 hash_PeRlHaSh = PERL_HASH_SEED; \ while (i_PeRlHaSh--) { \ hash_PeRlHaSh += *s_PeRlHaSh++; \ hash_PeRlHaSh += (hash_PeRlHaSh << 10); \ hash_PeRlHaSh ^= (hash_PeRlHaSh >> 6); \ } \ hash_PeRlHaSh += (hash_PeRlHaSh << 3); \ hash_PeRlHaSh ^= (hash_PeRlHaSh >> 11); \ (hash) = (hash_PeRlHaSh + (hash_PeRlHaSh << 15)); \ } STMT_END

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
