I should also make it clear that the collision hash((1,0,0)) == hash((1,-2,-2)) that I reported is due to the algorithm, it's not due to some bad luck that 2 numbers happen to be the same. There are also many more similar hash collisions for tuples (all involving negative numbers) due to the same underlying mathematical reason. I still don't understand why you don't consider it a problem. It may be a tiny problem, not really affecting the correct functioning of CPython. But, if we can fix this tiny problem, why shouldn't we? ---------- _______________________________________ 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
