    The salt and hash are then stored in the database. To later test if a password a user enters is correct, the same process can be performed on it (appending that user's salt to the password and calculating the resultant hash): if the result does not match the stored hash, it could not have been the correct password that was entered.

  4. LZ4 (compression algorithm) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LZ4_(compression_algorithm)

    The string of literals comes after the token and any extra bytes needed to indicate string length. This is followed by an offset that indicates how far back in the output buffer to begin copying. The extra bytes (if any) of the match-length come at the end of the sequence. [6] [7] Compression can be carried out in a stream or in blocks.

  5. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    A hash table uses a hash function to compute an index, also called a hash code, into an array of buckets or slots, from which the desired value can be found. During lookup, the key is hashed and the resulting hash indicates where the corresponding value is stored. A map implemented by a hash table is called a hash map.

  6. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    The closeness of a match is measured in terms of the number of primitive operations necessary to convert the string into an exact match. This number is called the edit distance between the string and the pattern. The usual primitive operations are: [1] insertion: cot → coat; deletion: coat → cot

  7. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    Simplistic hash functions may add the first and last n characters of a string along with the length, or form a word-size hash from the middle 4 characters of a string. This saves iterating over the (potentially long) string, but hash functions that do not hash on all characters of a string can readily become linear due to redundancies ...

  8. Rabin–Karp algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabin–Karp_algorithm

    These positions contribute to the running time of the algorithm unnecessarily, without producing a match. Additionally, the hash function used should be a rolling hash, a hash function whose value can be quickly updated from each position of the text to the next. Recomputing the hash function from scratch at each position would be too slow.

  9. Hash collision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_collision

    Hash collisions can be unavoidable depending on the number of objects in a set and whether or not the bit string they are mapped to is long enough in length. When there is a set of n objects, if n is greater than | R |, which in this case R is the range of the hash value, the probability that there will be a hash collision is 1, meaning it is ...
