I agree with Raymond and Tim here: while it's inevitably true that there are many possible hash collisions, we'd need to see where the current algorithm caused real problems in real code. Pointing out a few examples where there was a collision isn't very helpful. So, jdemeyer, if it's possible to show (or describe) to us an example of a problem you had, such that we could repeat it, that would be helpful (and necessary) to evaluate any proposed changes. What were the inputs to hash() that caused a problem, and how did that problem manifest itself? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34751> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
