# Struct std::hash::SipHasher [−] [src]

    pub struct SipHasher {
        // some fields omitted
    }

1.0.0

An implementation of SipHash 2-4.

See: http://131002.net/siphash/

This is currently the default hashing function used by standard library (eg. `collections::HashMap` uses it by default).

SipHash is a general-purpose hashing function: it runs at a good speed (competitive with Spooky and City) and permits strong keyed hashing. This lets you key your hashtables from a strong RNG, such as `rand::os::OsRng`.

Although the SipHash algorithm is considered to be generally strong, it is not intended for cryptographic purposes. As such, all cryptographic uses of this implementation are strongly discouraged.

## Methods

### `impl SipHasher`

#### `fn new() -> SipHasher`

Creates a new `SipHasher` with the two initial keys set to 0.

#### `fn new_with_keys(key0: u64, key1: u64) -> SipHasher`

Creates a `SipHasher` that is keyed off the provided keys.

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
