I am looking at new features available in Guava and I have found a page on hashing utilities.
The documentation says that
For the many uses of hash functions beyond simple hash tables,
however, Object.hashCode almost always falls short
Can you please share some other use cases of hash functions beyond hash tables?
Cryptographic hash functions, Bloom filters, data fingerprinting, the Rabin-Karp substring-search algorithm, should I go on?
