The hashing function works by computing the sum +-- of each char and the previous hash value multiplied by 129. Finally the +-- length of the identifier is added in. This way the hash depends on the +-- chars as well as the length, and appears to be sufficiently unique, +-- and is FAST to COMPUTE, unlike the previous hash function... +-- +-- AUTHOR +-- Dennis Vadura, dvadura@dmake.wticorp.com +-- +-- WWW +-- http://dmake.wticorp.com/ +-- +-- COPYRIGHT +-- Copyright (c) 1996,1997 by WTI Corp.
