- I want to know if there is a news group where I can find information on
- hashing algorithms. I need one that can take a 48 character string (part number
- and manufacturer) and hash it into a completely unique 32 bit integer that has
- the same sort consistancy as the 48 character ASCII string. Could some one
- point me in the right direction?????
