It might be interesting if someone were to publish the Ardent hashing algorithms, then. ;) Not something I'm prepared to risk doing, however. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sat, 14 Feb 2004 10:45:45 EST To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Hashing Algorithm I have

Could anyone let me know where can I found information about the way the Hash Algorithm Works with each one of the File Types in UniVerse? It does, of course, lead to the question of why you want to know! Why not? .. I'd bet on simple (or not so simple) curiousity .. Aren't we all pretty

Why not? .. I'd bet on simple (or not so simple) curiousity .. Aren't we all pretty much tech geeks here? .. Maybe he wants to see the hashing mathematics for himself and then check out a high speed data structures book and see if they're all they're cracked up to be .. I have the algorithms

From: Karjala Koponen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Would knowing the algorithms allow you to write a program that would accept parameters about your file, or even walk the file, to determine which file type would be best for that file? Years ago I wrote a FTN program that analyzed PR1ME INFORMATION

When HASH.HELP became robust enough I quit using my program as I couldn't justify the development time/effort. Instead I wrote a front-end which generated paragraphs consisting primarily of HASH.HELP %filename% statements. The paragraphs included COMO statements, and the final statement ran
