FNV1a {devtools} R Documentation

FNV-1a non-cryptographic hash function

Description


FNV hashes are designed to be fast while maintaining a low collision rate.
The FNV speed allows one to quickly hash lots of data while maintaining a
reasonable collision rate. The high dispersion of the FNV hashes makes
them well suited for hashing nearly identical strings such as URLs, hostnames,
filenames, text, IP addresses, etc.
