Kåre Krig <karek...@gmail.com> added the comment: I tried it again with another file. This time I used the dictionary from www.math.sjsu.edu/~foster/dictionary.txt (~3Mb)
hash(buff_A) == hash(buff_B) returns False just like the direct comparison. I ran the program on dictionary.txt and printed buff_A & buff_B to two different files. When running diff on those files the reported differences where: 149668c149668 < intraisland --- > intrqisland 150052c150052 < invernacular --- > ynvernacular 230933c230933 < perwitsky --- > perwitski For my first run, then immediatly running the same script and doing diff again produced another set of differences 253803c253803 < recrown --- > recrow~ 254213c254213 < redisseise --- > bedisseise 254656c254656 < reflectors --- > beflectors 255083c255083 < regrating --- > regratinw Note how the ascii codes for the faulty characters only differ by one bit, and only the 5th least significant bit. This is consistent with my previous tests. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12784> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
