Hello,
Recent Python versions randomize the hashes of str, bytes and
datetime objects. I suppose that the choice of these three types
is the result of a compromise. Has this been discussed somewhere
publicly?
Search archives of this list... it was discussed at length.
I'm not a web programmer, but don't web applications also use
dictionaries that are indexed by, say, tuples of integers?
Sure, and that is the biggest part of the reason they were
randomized. I think hashes of all types have been randomized, not
_just_ the list you mentioned.
