string hash function javascript code example
Example: javascript hash string
/**
* Calculate a 32 bit FNV-1a hash
* Found here: https://gist.github.com/vaiorabbit/5657561
* Ref.: http://isthe.com/chongo/tech/comp/fnv/
*
* @param {string} str the input value
* @param {boolean} [asString=false] set to true to return the hash value as
* 8-digit hex string instead of an integer
* @param {integer} [seed] optionally pass the hash of the previous chunk
* @returns {integer | string}
