Struct std::hash::SipHasher
[−]
[src]
pub struct SipHasher { // some fields omitted }1.0.0
An implementation of SipHash 2-4.
See: https://131002.net/siphash/
This is currently the default hashing function used by standard library
(eg. collections::HashMap
uses it by default).
SipHash is a general-purpose hashing function: it runs at a good
speed (competitive with Spooky and City) and permits strong keyed
hashing. This lets you key your hashtables from a strong RNG, such as
rand::os::OsRng
.
Although the SipHash algorithm is considered to be generally strong, it is not intended for cryptographic purposes. As such, all cryptographic uses of this implementation are strongly discouraged.
Methods
impl SipHasher
fn new() -> SipHasher
Creates a new SipHasher
with the two initial keys set to 0.
fn new_with_keys(key0: u64, key1: u64) -> SipHasher
Creates a SipHasher
that is keyed off the provided keys.
