# Hash functions
Hash functions can be used for the deterministic pseudo-random shuffling of elements.
## halfMD5 {#hash_functions-halfmd5}
[Interprets](../../query_language/functions/type_conversion_functions.md#type_conversion_functions-reinterpretAsString) all the input parameters as strings and calculates the [MD5](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5) hash value for each of them. Then combines hashes, takes the first 8 bytes of the hash of the resulting string, and interprets them as `UInt64` in big-endian byte order.
```sql
halfMD5(par1, ...)
```
The function is relatively slow (5 million short strings per second per processor core).
Consider using the [sipHash64](#hash_functions-siphash64) function instead.
**Parameters**
The function takes a variable number of input parameters. Parameters can be any of the [supported data types](../../data_types/index.md).
**Returned Value**
A [UInt64](../../data_types/int_uint.md) data type hash value.
**Example**
```sql
SELECT halfMD5(array('e','x','a'), 'mple', 10, toDateTime('2019-06-15 23:00:00')) AS halfMD5hash, toTypeName(halfMD5hash) AS type
```
```text
┌────────halfMD5hash─┬─type───┐
│ 186182704141653334 │ UInt64 │
└────────────────────┴────────┘
```
## MD5 {#hash_functions-md5}
Calculates the MD5 from a string and returns the resulting set of bytes as FixedString(16).
If you don't need MD5 in particular, but you need a decent cryptographic 128-bit hash, use the 'sipHash128' function instead.
If you want to get the same result as output by the md5sum utility, use lower(hex(MD5(s))).
## sipHash64 {#hash_functions-siphash64}
Produces a 64-bit [SipHash](https://131002.net/siphash/) hash value.
```sql
sipHash64(par1,...)
```
This is a cryptographic hash function. It works at least three times faster than the [MD5](#hash_functions-md5) function.
Function [interprets](../../query_language/functions/type_conversion_functions.md#type_conversion_functions-reinterpretAsString) all the input parameters as strings and calculates the hash value for each of them. Then combines hashes by the following algorithm:
1. After hashing all the input parameters, the function gets the array of hashes.
2. Function takes the first and the second elements and calculates a hash for the array of them.
3. Then the function takes the hash value, calculated at the previous step, and the third element of the initial hash array, and calculates a hash for the array of them.
4. The previous step is repeated for all the remaining elements of the initial hash array.
**Parameters**
The function takes a variable number of input parameters. Parameters can be any of the [supported data types](../../data_types/index.md).
**Returned Value**
A [UInt64](../../data_types/int_uint.md) data type hash value.
**Example**
```sql
SELECT sipHash64(array('e','x','a'), 'mple', 10, toDateTime('2019-06-15 23:00:00')) AS SipHash, toTypeName(SipHash) AS type
```
```text
┌──────────────SipHash─┬─type───┐
│ 13726873534472839665 │ UInt64 │
└──────────────────────┴────────┘
```
## sipHash128 {#hash_functions-siphash128}
Calculates SipHash from a string.
Accepts a String-type argument. Returns FixedString(16).
Differs from sipHash64 in that the final xor-folding state is only done up to 128 bits.
## cityHash64
Produces a 64-bit [CityHash](https://github.com/google/cityhash) hash value.
```sql
cityHash64(par1,...)
```
This is a fast non-cryptographic hash function. It uses the CityHash algorithm for string parameters and implementation-specific fast non-cryptographic hash function for parameters with other data types. The function uses the CityHash combinator to get the final results.
**Parameters**
The function takes a variable number of input parameters. Parameters can be any of the [supported data types](../../data_types/index.md).
**Returned Value**
A [UInt64](../../data_types/int_uint.md) data type hash value.
**Examples**
Call example:
```sql
SELECT cityHash64(array('e','x','a'), 'mple', 10, toDateTime('2019-06-15 23:00:00')) AS CityHash, toTypeName(CityHash) AS type
```
```text
┌─────────────CityHash─┬─type───┐
│ 12072650598913549138 │ UInt64 │
└──────────────────────┴────────┘
```
The following example shows how to compute the checksum of the entire table with accuracy up to the row order:
```sql
SELECT groupBitXor(cityHash64(*)) FROM table
```
## intHash32
Calculates a 32-bit hash code from any type of integer.
This is a relatively fast non-cryptographic hash function of average quality for numbers.
## intHash64
Calculates a 64-bit hash code from any type of integer.
It works faster than intHash32. Average quality.
## SHA1
## SHA224
## SHA256
Calculates SHA-1, SHA-224, or SHA-256 from a string and returns the resulting set of bytes as FixedString(20), FixedString(28), or FixedString(32).
The function works fairly slowly (SHA-1 processes about 5 million short strings per second per processor core, while SHA-224 and SHA-256 process about 2.2 million).
We recommend using this function only in cases when you need a specific hash function and you can't select it.
Even in these cases, we recommend applying the function offline and pre-calculating values when inserting them into the table, instead of applying it in SELECTS.
## URLHash(url\[, N\])
A fast, decent-quality non-cryptographic hash function for a string obtained from a URL using some type of normalization.
`URLHash(s)` Calculates a hash from a string without one of the trailing symbols `/`,`?` or `#` at the end, if present.
`URLHash(s, N)` Calculates a hash from a string up to the N level in the URL hierarchy, without one of the trailing symbols `/`,`?` or `#` at the end, if present.
Levels are the same as in URLHierarchy. This function is specific to Yandex.Metrica.
## farmHash64
Produces a 64-bit [FarmHash](https://github.com/google/farmhash) hash value.
```sql
farmHash64(par1, ...)
```
The function uses the `Hash64` method from all [available methods](https://github.com/google/farmhash/blob/master/src/farmhash.h).
**Parameters**
The function takes a variable number of input parameters. Parameters can be any of the [supported data types](../../data_types/index.md).
**Returned Value**
A [UInt64](../../data_types/int_uint.md) data type hash value.
**Example**
```sql
SELECT farmHash64(array('e','x','a'), 'mple', 10, toDateTime('2019-06-15 23:00:00')) AS FarmHash, toTypeName(FarmHash) AS type
```
```text
┌─────────────FarmHash─┬─type───┐
│ 17790458267262532859 │ UInt64 │
└──────────────────────┴────────┘
```
## javaHash {#hash_functions-javahash}
Calculates [JavaHash](http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/478a4add975b/src/share/classes/java/lang/String.java#l1452) from a string. This hash function is neither fast nor having a good quality. The only reason to use it is when this algorithm is already used in another system and you have to calculate exactly the same result.
**Syntax**
```sql
SELECT javaHash('');
```
**Returned value**
A `Int32` data type hash value.
**Example**
Query:
```sql
SELECT javaHash('Hello, world!');
```
Result:
```text
┌─javaHash('Hello, world!')─┐
│ -1880044555 │
└───────────────────────────┘
```
## javaHashUTF16LE {#javahashutf16le}
Calculates [JavaHash](http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/478a4add975b/src/share/classes/java/lang/String.java#l1452) from a string, assuming it contains bytes representing a string in UTF-16LE encoding.
**Syntax**
```sql
javaHashUTF16LE(stringUtf16le)
```
**Parameters**
- `stringUtf16le` — a string in UTF-16LE encoding.
**Returned value**
A `Int32` data type hash value.
**Example**
Correct query with UTF-16LE encoded string.
Query:
```sql
SELECT javaHashUTF16LE(convertCharset('test', 'utf-8', 'utf-16le'))
```
Result:
```text
┌─javaHashUTF16LE(convertCharset('test', 'utf-8', 'utf-16le'))─┐
│ 3556498 │
└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
## hiveHash {#hash_functions-hivehash}
Calculates `HiveHash` from a string.
```sql
SELECT hiveHash('');
```
This is just [JavaHash](#hash_functions-javahash) with zeroed out sign bit. This function is used in [Apache Hive](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Hive) for versions before 3.0. This hash function is neither fast nor having a good quality. The only reason to use it is when this algorithm is already used in another system and you have to calculate exactly the same result.
**Returned value**
A `Int32` data type hash value.
Type: `hiveHash`.
**Example**
Query:
```sql
SELECT hiveHash('Hello, world!');
```
Result:
```text
