How does one build a hash function with minimal table size and minimal
collisions for a known set of hash strings?


i.e. I want to hash the one hundred + opcodes for the Intel 386 processor
into the smallest possible table with the fewest collisions. Is there any
way of quickly finding a function to do that, or am I stuck with endless
tweaking of the hash parameters? If anyone has done this % before, please
let me know by email degroot@cpsc.ucalgary.ca, before Dec 20th or so
(after that mail 'll bounce)


This is NOT homework.
