Speaking of which: >>> from itertools import product >>> len(set(map(hash, product([0.5, 0.25], repeat=20)))) 32 32 hash codes out of 1048576 distinct two-tuples isn't exactly confidence-inspiring either ;-) No scheme that only "propagates to the left" is going to help that much, because the variation in those hashes is all in the high-order bits. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34751> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
