siphash

✓ from siphashc import siphash

✗ import siphashc; siphashc.siphash(data)

Hash a bytes object using SipHash-2-4.

import siphashc data = b'hello world' hashed = siphashc.siphash(data) print(hashed) # e.g. 0x9f8d5a4b3c2e1f0a

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe function only accepts bytes objects; strings must be encoded first.

fix

Call data.encode('utf-8') before hashing.
