Phf.Net

Tiny perfect hash library for dotnet. This is an implementation of the CHD algorithm

Installation

This project is available as a NuGet package

Example

Some code

var strings = Enumerable.Range(0, 6).Select(x => $"str{x}").ToArray();
var settings = new PhfSettings {ItemsPerBucket = 4, Alpha = 80, Seed = 31337, NoDivision = true};
var hashFunction = PerfectHashFunction.Create(strings, settings);
foreach (var str in strings)
    Console.WriteLine($"{str} - {hashFunction.Evaluate(str)}");

Output

str0 - 0
str1 - 4
str2 - 6
str3 - 3
str4 - 2
str5 - 5

Hints

• You can serialize created PerfectHashFunction for the future usage
• PhfSettings has default values for all properties
