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.
wyhash is the default hasher for a hash table of the great Zig, V and Nim language.
Simple Example:
#include "wyhash.h"
string s="fcdskhfjs";
uint64_t h=wyhash(s.c_str(),s.size(),0,_wyp);
