  2. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    When the hash function is used to store values in a hash table that outlives the run of the program, and the hash table needs to be expanded or shrunk, the hash table is referred to as a dynamic hash table. A hash function that will relocate the minimum number of records when the table is resized is desirable.

  3. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    Java programming language includes the HashSet, HashMap, LinkedHashSet, and LinkedHashMap generic collections. [53] Python's built-in dict implements a hash table in the form of a type. [54] Ruby's built-in Hash uses the open addressing model from Ruby 2.4 onwards. [55] Rust programming language includes HashMap, HashSet as part of the Rust ...

  4. Comparison of programming languages (associative array)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    A hash variable is typically marked by a % sigil, to visually distinguish it from scalar, array, and other data types, and to define its behaviour towards iteration. A hash literal is a key-value list, with the preferred form using Perl's => token, which makes the key-value association clearer:

  5. Shebang (Unix) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix)

    It is also called sharp-exclamation, sha-bang, [1] [2] hashbang, [3] [4] pound-bang, [5] [6] or hash-pling. [7] When a text file with a shebang is used as if it were an executable in a Unix-like operating system, the program loader mechanism parses the rest of the file's initial line as an interpreter directive.

  6. Data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure

    A data structure known as a hash table.. In computer science, a data structure is a data organization and storage format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data. [1] [2] [3] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data, [4] i.e., it is an algebraic structure about data.

  7. Salt (cryptography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography)

    The salt and hash are then stored in the database. To later test if a password a user enters is correct, the same process can be performed on it (appending that user's salt to the password and calculating the resultant hash): if the result does not match the stored hash, it could not have been the correct password that was entered.

  8. Universal hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_hashing

    Several hash table implementations are based on universal hashing. In such applications, typically the software chooses a new hash function only after it notices that "too many" keys have collided; until then, the same hash function continues to be used over and over.

  9. Sponge function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sponge_function

    The sponge construction for hash functions. P i are blocks of the input string, Z i are hashed output blocks. In cryptography, a sponge function or sponge construction is any of a class of algorithms with finite internal state that take an input bit stream of any length and produce an output bit stream of any desired length. Sponge functions ...
