# fnv1a-pure

**Zero-dependency pure-stdlib FNV-1a and FNV-1 hash (32/64-bit) for Python.**

`fnv1a-pure` provides Fowler-Noll-Vo FNV-1a and FNV-1 hash functions without any C extensions or third-party dependencies. Works on CPython 3.8+, MicroPython, and Pyodide.

## Quick Start

```bash
pip install -e .
```

```python
from fnv1a_pure import fnv1a_64, fnv1a_32, fnv1_64, fnv1_32, fnv1a_64_hex, fnv1a_32_hex

# FNV-1a-64 (most common variant)
fnv1a_64(b"hello")          # → 11831194018420276491
fnv1a_64_hex(b"hello")      # → "a430d84680aabd0b"

# FNV-1a-32
fnv1a_32(b"hello")          # → 1335831723
fnv1a_32_hex(b"hello")      # → "4f9f2cab"

# FNV-1 (alternate: multiply-before-XOR)
fnv1_64(b"hello")           # → 8883723591023973575  (different from FNV-1a)
fnv1_32(b"hello")           # → 3233227887
```

## Why fnv1a-pure?

- **Zero dependencies** — pure stdlib, no C extensions, no `pip install` failures on Pyodide/WebAssembly
- **Works everywhere** — CPython 3.8+, MicroPython, Pyodide, AWS Lambda, serverless environments
- **Canonical algorithm** — FNV-1a is the de-facto standard non-cryptographic hash in Memcached, Redis, Nginx, and Cloudflare's load balancers
- **Small footprint** — single file, ~85 LOC core, no bloat

**Competitor:** `fnvhash` (PyPI) is a C extension requiring compilation — fails on Pyodide and zero-compile serverless.

## Key Features

- `fnv1a_64(data: bytes) -> int` — FNV-1a-64 hash, unsigned 64-bit
- `fnv1a_32(data: bytes) -> int` — FNV-1a-32 hash, unsigned 32-bit
- `fnv1_64(data: bytes) -> int` — FNV-1-64 hash (multiply-before-XOR variant)
- `fnv1_32(data: bytes) -> int` — FNV-1-32 hash
- `fnv1a_64_hex(data: bytes) -> str` — zero-padded 16-char hex string
- `fnv1a_32_hex(data: bytes) -> str` — zero-padded 8-char hex string

## API Reference

All functions accept `bytes` and return an unsigned `int`:

| Function | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|
| `fnv1a_64(b"hello")` | bytes | unsigned 64-bit int |
| `fnv1a_32(b"hello")` | bytes | unsigned 32-bit int |
| `fnv1_64(b"hello")` | bytes | unsigned 64-bit int |
| `fnv1_32(b"hello")` | bytes | unsigned 32-bit int |
| `fnv1a_64_hex(b"hello")` | bytes | 16-char hex str |
| `fnv1a_32_hex(b"hello")` | bytes | 8-char hex str |

## Test Vectors

| Input | FNV-1a-64 | FNV-1a-32 |
|---|---|---|
| `b""` | 14695981039346656037 | 2166136261 |
| `b"a"` | 12638187200555641996 | 3826002220 |
| `b"hello"` | 11831194018420276491 | 1335831723 |
| `b"hello world"` | 8618312879776256743 | 3582672807 |

> All values verified against the FNV reference implementation (first principles).

## Limitations

**This is NOT a cryptographic hash.** FNV-1a is a non-cryptographic hash designed for hash tables and bloom filters — not for security purposes. It is intentionally fast and simple, not collision-resistant or preimage-resistant. Do not use it for password hashing, digital signatures, or any security-critical purpose.

**Byte strings only** — pass `data.encode()` for string input. Passing `str` directly raises `TypeError`.

## Test Suite

**111 tests** covering:
- All 10 acceptance criteria (each has ≥1 test)
- Canonical test vectors from FNV reference
- Determinism: identical input always produces identical output
- Byte-order independence
- Edge cases: empty input, all-zeros, all-ones, 64KB payloads
- FNV-1 vs FNV-1a distinction
- Property: distinct inputs produce distinct outputs
- All 256 single-byte values, collision-free in 64-bit space

```bash
pytest -q
```
