Steven, my requirement calls for same hash on multiple machines. Python's hash (for strings) is keyed with a random value. You are correct that `hash(tuple(map(ord, str(something))))` is stable. In the worst case, I could override `PYTHONHASHSEED` globally. I suppose this relegates my suggestion to "why not" or "because we can" category. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35600> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
