Speaking of which:
>>> from itertools import product
>>> len(set(map(hash, product([0.5, 0.25], repeat=20))))
32
32 hash codes out of 1048576 distinct two-tuples isn't exactly confidence-inspiring either ;-) No scheme that only "propagates to the left" is going to help that much, because the variation in those hashes is all in the high-order bits. |
