各种常用字符串Hash函数比较

常用的字符串Hash函数还有ELFHash，APHash等等，都是十分简单有效的方法。这些函数使用位运算使得每一个字符都对最后的函数值产生影响。另外还有以MD5和SHA1为代表的杂凑函数，这些函数几乎不可能找到碰撞。

常用字符串哈希函数有BKDRHash，APHash，DJBHash，JSHash，RSHash，SDBMHash，PJWHash，ELFHash等等。对于以上几种哈希函数，我对其进行了一个小小的评测。

Hash函数数据1数据2数据3数据4数据1得分数据2得分数据3得分数据4得分平均分BKDRHash20477448196.5510090.9582.0592.64APHash23475449396.5588.4610051.2886.28DJBHash22497547496.5592.31010083.43JSHash14476150610084.6296.8317.9581.94RSHash10486150510010051.5820.5175.96SDBMHash32484950493.192.3157.0123.0872.41PJWHash302648785130043.89021.95ELFHash302648785130043.89021.95

其中数据1为100000个字母和数字组成的随机串哈希冲突个数。数据2为100000个有意义的英文句子哈希冲突个数。数据3为数据1的哈希值与1000003(大素数)求模后存储到线性表中冲突的个数。数据4为数据1的哈希值与10000019(更大素数)求模后存储到线性表中冲突的个数。

经过比较，得出以上平均得分。平均数为平方平均数。可以发现，BKDRHash无论是在实际效果还是编码实现中，效果都是最突出的。APHash也是较为优秀的算法。DJBHash,JSHash,RSHash与SDBMHash各有千秋。PJWHash与ELFHash效果最差，但得分相似，其算法本质是相似的。

在信息修竞赛中，要本着易于编码调试的原则，个人认为BKDRHash是最适合记忆和使用的。
