method
Hash.mix
Hash.mix(x) -> int
Scrambles a single integer so its bits are thoroughly mixed — the MurmurHash3 fmix32 finalizer (shift/multiply/shift). Nearby inputs like 0, 1, 2 map to values that look unrelated, which is exactly what you want when turning a counter, entity id, or frame number into a random-looking seed. It is deterministic and self-inverse-free: the same input always gives the same output. Hash.mix(0) is 0. For folding several numbers together use Hash.combine.
Parameters
xthe integer to avalancheExample
program Seeds {
entry {
var i = 0
while i < 4 {
print(Hash.mix(i)) # consecutive counters -> unrelated-looking seeds
i = i + 1
}
}
}
