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. Emile
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. -Selby _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
