I am using a hash table in a small randomization program. I know that
some hash functions can be prone to collisions, so I need a way to
detect collisions.
The 'hash value' will be stored as a variable. I do not want to check it
against each singular hash value, as there will be many; I need a way to
check it against all hash values at once (if possible.)

so keeping the hash values in a dict would allow you to test as follows:

if new_hash_value in dict_of_hash_values:
    # and bob's your uncle.

Sorry for those
who like to reference, but there is no source code as of yet. I will
need this to be solved before I can start writing, sorry!

If you need any extra info let me know.
