wyhash and wyrand are the ideal 64-bit hash function and PRNG respectively:
solid: wyhash passed SMHasher, wyrand passed BigCrush, practrand.
portable: 64-bit/32-bit system, big/little endian.
fastest: Efficient on 64-bit machines, especially for short keys.
simplest: In the sense of code size.
salted: We use dynamic secret to avoid intended attack.
wyhash is the default hashing algorithm of the great Zig, V, Nim and Go (since 1.17) language. One milestone is that wyhash has deployed by Microsoft on [Windows Terminal] (microsoft/terminal#13686).
Simple Example:
#include "wyhash.h"
uint64_t _wyp[4];
make_secret(time(NULL),_wyp);
string s="fcdskhfjs";
uint64_t h=wyhash(s.c_str(),s.size(),0,_wyp);
