Hey there,

I don't see any information in the docs about the hashing fashion used here, could you provide some insight? Thanks!

It multiplies primes together to create a hash

python-bloom-filter/src/bloom_filter/bloom_filter.py

Lines 450 to 455 in b5fe317

	def simple_hash(int_list, prime1, prime2, prime3):
	"""Compute a hash value from a list of integers and 3 primes"""
	result = 0
	for integer in int_list:
	result += ((result + integer + prime1) * prime2) % prime3
	return result
