Hash.Strategy (fastutil 8.2.3)

Enclosing interface:

Hash
```
public static interface Hash.Strategy<K>
```
A generic hash strategy.
Custom hash structures (e.g., ObjectOpenCustomHashSet) allow to hash objects using arbitrary functions, a typical example being that of arrays. Of course, one has to compare objects for equality consistently with the chosen function. A hash strategy, thus, specifies an equality method and a hash function, with the obvious property that equal objects must have the same hash code.
Note that the equals() method of a strategy must be able to handle null, too.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`boolean`	`equals(K a, K b)`	Returns true if the given objects are equal with respect to this hash strategy.
`int`	`hashCode(K o)`	Returns the hash code of the specified object with respect to this hash strategy.

- Method Detail
  - hashCode
```
int hashCode(K o)
```
    Returns the hash code of the specified object with respect to this hash strategy.
    
    Parameters:
    
    o - an object (or null).
    
    Returns:
    
    the hash code of the given object with respect to this hash strategy.
  - equals
```
boolean equals(K a,
               K b)
```
    Returns true if the given objects are equal with respect to this hash strategy.
    
    Parameters:
    
    a - an object (or null).
    
    b - another object (or null).
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the two specified objects are equal with respect to this hash strategy.
