A pluggable hash function.
interface val HashFunction[A: A]Data structures create instances internally. Use a primitive if possible.
new val create()
: HashFunction[A] val^- HashFunction[A] val^
Calculate the hash of some type. This is an alias of the type parameter to allow data structures to hash things without consuming them.
fun box hash(
x: box->A!)
: USize val- x: box->A!
- USize val
Determine equality between two keys with the same hash. This is done with viewpoint adapted aliases to allow data structures to determine equality in a box fun without consuming keys.
fun box eq(
x: box->A!,
y: box->A!)
: Bool val- x: box->A!
- y: box->A!
- Bool val
