Function string_hash

pub fn string_hash(s: &str) -> usize

Computes a hash for a UTF-8 string slice using the method described by Bruno Haible.

This function iterates over each byte of the string, updating the hash value at each step. It is suitable for hashing Rust string slices (&str), not raw C pointers.

Examples

use text_fx::hash::string_hash;

let hash = string_hash("hello");
assert_eq!(hash, string_hash("hello"));
assert_ne!(hash, string_hash("world"));
