Issue #8188: Introduce a new scheme for computing hashes of numbers 

(instances of int, float, complex, decimal.Decimal and
fractions.Fraction) that makes it easy to maintain the invariant that
hash(x) == hash(y) whenever x and y have equal value.

Hashing of numeric types
------------------------
For numbers ``x`` and ``y``, possibly of different types, it's a requirement
that ``hash(x) == hash(y)`` whenever ``x == y`` (see the :meth:`__hash__`
method documentation for more details). For ease of implementation and
efficiency across a variety of numeric types (including :class:`int`,
:class:`float`, :class:`decimal.Decimal` and :class:`fractions.Fraction`)
Python's hash for numeric types is based on a single mathematical function
that's defined for any rational number, and hence applies to all instances of
:class:`int` and :class:`fraction.Fraction`, and all finite instances of
:class:`float` and :class:`decimal.Decimal`. Essentially, this function is
given by reduction modulo ``P`` for a fixed prime ``P``. The value of ``P`` is
made available to Python as the :attr:`modulus` attribute of
:data:`sys.hash_info`.
.. impl-detail::
Currently, the prime used is ``P = 2**31 - 1`` on machines with 32-bit C
longs and ``P = 2**61 - 1`` on machines with 64-bit C longs.
Here are the rules in detail:
- If ``x = m / n`` is a nonnegative rational number and ``n`` is not divisible
by ``P``, define ``hash(x)`` as ``m * invmod(n, P) % P``, where ``invmod(n,
P)`` gives the inverse of ``n`` modulo ``P``.
- If ``x = m / n`` is a nonnegative rational number and ``n`` is
divisible by ``P`` (but ``m`` is not) then ``n`` has no inverse
modulo ``P`` and the rule above doesn't apply; in this case define
``hash(x)`` to be the constant value ``sys.hash_info.inf``.
- If ``x = m / n`` is a negative rational number define ``hash(x)``
as ``-hash(-x)``. If the resulting hash is ``-1``, replace it with
``-2``.
- The particular values ``sys.hash_info.inf``, ``-sys.hash_info.inf``
and ``sys.hash_info.nan`` are used as hash values for positive
infinity, negative infinity, or nans (respectively). (All hashable
nans have the same hash value.)
- For a :class:`complex` number ``z``, the hash values of the real
and imaginary parts are combined by computing ``hash(z.real) +
sys.hash_info.imag * hash(z.imag)``, reduced modulo
``2**sys.hash_info.width`` so that it lies in
``range(-2**(sys.hash_info.width - 1), 2**(sys.hash_info.width -
1))``. Again, if the result is ``-1``, it's replaced with ``-2``.
To clarify the above rules, here's some example Python code,
equivalent to the builtin hash, for computing the hash of a rational
number, :class:`float`, or :class:`complex`::
import sys, math
def hash_fraction(m, n):
"""Compute the hash of a rational number m / n.
Assumes m and n are integers, with n positive.
Equivalent to hash(fractions.Fraction(m, n)).
"""
P = sys.hash_info.modulus
# Remove common factors of P. (Unnecessary if m and n already coprime.)
while m % P == n % P == 0:
m, n = m // P, n // P
if n % P == 0:
hash_ = sys.hash_info.inf
else:
# Fermat's Little Theorem: pow(n, P-1, P) is 1, so
# pow(n, P-2, P) gives the inverse of n modulo P.
hash_ = (abs(m) % P) * pow(n, P - 2, P) % P
if m < 0:
hash_ = -hash_
if hash_ == -1:
hash_ = -2
return hash_
def hash_float(x):
"""Compute the hash of a float x."""
if math.isnan(x):
return sys.hash_info.nan
elif math.isinf(x):
return sys.hash_info.inf if x > 0 else -sys.hash_info.inf
else:
return hash_fraction(*x.as_integer_ratio())
def hash_complex(z):
"""Compute the hash of a complex number z."""
hash_ = hash_float(z.real) + sys.hash_info.imag * hash_float(z.imag)
# do a signed reduction modulo 2**sys.hash_info.width
M = 2**(sys.hash_info.width - 1)
hash_ = (hash_ & (M - 1)) - (hash & M)
if hash_ == -1:
hash_ == -2
return hash_

/* For numeric types, the hash of a number x is based on the reduction
of x modulo the prime P = 2**_PyHASH_BITS - 1. It's designed so that
hash(x) == hash(y) whenever x and y are numerically equal, even if
x and y have different types.
A quick summary of the hashing strategy:
(1) First define the 'reduction of x modulo P' for any rational
number x; this is a standard extension of the usual notion of
reduction modulo P for integers. If x == p/q (written in lowest
terms), the reduction is interpreted as the reduction of p times
the inverse of the reduction of q, all modulo P; if q is exactly
divisible by P then define the reduction to be infinity. So we've
got a well-defined map
reduce : { rational numbers } -> { 0, 1, 2, ..., P-1, infinity }.
(2) Now for a rational number x, define hash(x) by:
reduce(x) if x >= 0
-reduce(-x) if x < 0
If the result of the reduction is infinity (this is impossible for
integers, floats and Decimals) then use the predefined hash value
_PyHASH_INF for x >= 0, or -_PyHASH_INF for x < 0, instead.
_PyHASH_INF, -_PyHASH_INF and _PyHASH_NAN are also used for the
hashes of float and Decimal infinities and nans.
A selling point for the above strategy is that it makes it possible
to compute hashes of decimal and binary floating-point numbers
efficiently, even if the exponent of the binary or decimal number
is large. The key point is that
reduce(x * y) == reduce(x) * reduce(y) (modulo _PyHASH_MODULUS)
provided that {reduce(x), reduce(y)} != {0, infinity}. The reduction of a
binary or decimal float is never infinity, since the denominator is a power
of 2 (for binary) or a divisor of a power of 10 (for decimal). So we have,
for nonnegative x,
reduce(x * 2**e) == reduce(x) * reduce(2**e) % _PyHASH_MODULUS
reduce(x * 10**e) == reduce(x) * reduce(10**e) % _PyHASH_MODULUS
and reduce(10**e) can be computed efficiently by the usual modular
exponentiation algorithm. For reduce(2**e) it's even better: since
P is of the form 2**n-1, reduce(2**e) is 2**(e mod n), and multiplication
by 2**(e mod n) modulo 2**n-1 just amounts to a rotation of bits.
