What is murmurhash?

The murmurhash npm package is a JavaScript implementation of the MurmurHash algorithm, which is a non-cryptographic hash function suitable for general hash-based lookup. It is known for its speed and simplicity, making it a popular choice for hash table implementations and other applications where fast hashing is required.

What are murmurhash's main functionalities?

Hashing a string

This feature allows you to generate a 32-bit hash from a given string using the MurmurHash3 algorithm. It is useful for creating hash values for strings that can be used in hash tables or for quick comparisons.

const murmurhash = require('murmurhash');
const hash = murmurhash.v3('example string');
console.log(hash); // Outputs a 32-bit hash

Hashing a string with a seed

This feature allows you to generate a 32-bit hash from a given string with an additional seed value. The seed can be used to produce different hash values for the same input string, which can be useful in certain applications like randomized algorithms.

const murmurhash = require('murmurhash');
const hash = murmurhash.v3('example string', 12345);
console.log(hash); // Outputs a 32-bit hash with a seed
