Hi Clark,

If your keys are integers, then you've got the best hash function
possible: the identity function :)

I know what you mean, but that's not strictly speaking true. If your
integers were congruent modulo your hash table size, it wouldn't be a
very good hash function.

Regards,

Chris

That's why a good hash table uses primary numbers as table size (like CFDictionary does).
