在哈希码方法中使用^的原因是什么?

标签: java hashcode xor

我今天发现了这段代码:

private static class Node{
    private final int code1;
    private final int code2;

    public Node(int code1, int code2) {
        this.code1 = code1;
        this.code2 = code2;
    }

    @Override
    public int hashCode() {
        return (code1 * 31) ^ code2;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean equals(Object obj) {
        if (obj instanceof Node) {
            Node node = (Node) obj;
            return node.code1 == code1 && node.code2 == code2;
        }
        return false;
    }
}

哈希码是否有充分理由使用(code1 * 31)^ code2;

根据我的理解,创建哈希码的常用方法是将当前哈希码(或第一个字段)乘以素数,并为每个字段添加下一个字段。

为什么在这里需要 power XOR运算符?

1 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:8)

^不是一种力量,它是一种明智的异或。哈希码的目的是进行随机分布,^具有比+略好的属性,但不足以让大多数人关注。

BTW Java中没有幂运算符,只有Math.pow(a, b)


我可能错了,但我记得的方式是;

您希望每个位具有相等的生成0或1的操作。这不包括乘法,除法,模数和,或,或移位。这留下了^, - 或+。当你溢出时,你会丢失一些信息,^是唯一一个不会溢出的信息。

在上面的示例中,代码可能不会大于溢出,即使您使用+,我也希望差异非常小。


我不是这个主题的数学专家,但对我来说+似乎是一个更好的选择。如果您有以下内容(使用0-255字节,但它应具有代表性或int值会发生什么)

int[] add = new int[256];
int[] xor = new int[256];

for (int i = 0; i < 256; i++)
    for (int j = 0; j < 256; j++) {
        add[(i + j) & 0xFF]++;
        xor[i ^ j]++;
    }

System.out.println("add: " + Arrays.toString(add));
System.out.println("xor: " + Arrays.toString(xor));

每个值都有相同的机会。

add: [256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256, 256]

如果我们假设有偏差的分布,例如ASCII值的范围,0到127,则有可能在任一值中未设置的位将使用add设置,而不是xor。
