In this case, it needs to work like a reduce algorithm, because it is

Hash functions are _not_ analogous to reduce(), because the operation
performed by reduce() is stateless, whereas hash functions generally
have some internal state.
An example of stateless hash in .net:

AFAIK it'a method of HashAlgorithm Object.

It also includes TransformBlock & TransformFinalBlock. It does contain
state of course.
