MurmurHash3 general hash bashed lookup function implementation

about

MurmurHash is a non-cryptographic hash function suitable for general hash-based lookup. This implementation implements version 3 of MurmurHash.

example

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <murmurhash.h>

int
main (void) {
  uint32_t seed = 0;
  const char *key = "kinkajou";
  uint32_t hash = murmurhash(key, (uint32_t) strlen(key), seed); // 0xb6d99cf8
  return 0;
}

A command line executable is also available:

$ echo -n kinkajou | murmur
3067714808

$ echo -n panda | murmur --seed=10
1406483717

api

uint32_t
murmurhash (const char *key, uint32_t len, uint32_t seed);

Returns a murmur hash of key based on seed using the MurmurHash3 algorithm.
