Hello,

I have two questions about the Boost.Hash2 library:
1. Which xxHash algorithm is implemented exactly (I somehow couldn't see
this in the documentation). As far as I know there are four: XXH32,
XXH64, XXH3_64bits and XXH3_128bits [1]. Boost.Hash2 implements
xxhash_32 and xxhash_64, but is this the old xxHash version (XXH32,
XXH64) or the new xxHash version 3 (XXH3_64bits, XXH3_128bits)?
2. Is there a specific reason why the old cstdio library and not
iostream/fstream from C++ is used in the examples [2]?

I'm not that experienced with C++ programming yet - so the questions
might be a bit “stupid”, but I would still appreciate an answer!

Regards
Marek Küthe
