# Hash Functions
Hash functions can be used for the deterministic pseudo-random shuffling of elements.
Simhash is a hash function, which returns close hash values for close (similar) arguments.
## halfMD5
[Interprets](/docs/en/sql-reference/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.
**Arguments**
The function takes a variable number of input parameters. Arguments can be any of the [supported data types](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/index.md). For some data types calculated value of hash function may be the same for the same values even if types of arguments differ (integers of different size, named and unnamed `Tuple` with the same data, `Map` and the corresponding `Array(Tuple(key, value))` type with the same data).
**Returned Value**
A [UInt64](/docs/en/sql-reference/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;
```
```response
┌────────halfMD5hash─┬─type───┐
│ 186182704141653334 │ UInt64 │
└────────────────────┴────────┘
```
## MD4
Calculates the MD4 from a string and returns the resulting set of bytes as FixedString(16).
## MD5 {#hash_functions-md5}
Calculates the MD5 from a string and returns the resulting set of bytes as FixedString(16).
If you do not 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://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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) hash function.
The function [interprets](/docs/en/sql-reference/functions/type-conversion-functions.md/#type_conversion_functions-reinterpretAsString) all the input parameters as strings and calculates the hash value for each of them. It then combines the hashes by the following algorithm:
1. The first and the second hash value are concatenated to an array which is hashed.
2. The previously calculated hash value and the hash of the third input paramter are hashed in a similar way.
3. This calculation is repeated for all remaining hash values of the original input.
**Arguments**
The function takes a variable number of input parameters of any of the [supported data types](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/index.md).
**Returned Value**
A [UInt64](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) data type hash value.
Note that the calculated hash values may be equal for the same input values of different argument types. This affects for example integer types of different size, named and unnamed `Tuple` with the same data, `Map` and the corresponding `Array(Tuple(key, value))` type with the same data.
**Example**
```sql
SELECT sipHash64(array('e','x','a'), 'mple', 10, toDateTime('2019-06-15 23:00:00')) AS SipHash, toTypeName(SipHash) AS type;
```

## sipHash64Keyed
Same as [sipHash64](#hash_functions-siphash64) but additionally takes an explicit key argument instead of using a fixed key.
**Syntax**
```sql
sipHash64Keyed((k0, k1), par1,...)
```
**Arguments**
Same as [sipHash64](#hash_functions-siphash64), but the first argument is a tuple of two UInt64 values representing the key.
**Returned value**
A [UInt64](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) data type hash value.
**Example**
Query:
```sql
SELECT sipHash64Keyed((506097522914230528, 1084818905618843912), array('e','x','a'), 'mple', 10, toDateTime('2019-06-15 23:00:00')) AS SipHash, toTypeName(SipHash) AS type;

## sipHash128
Like [sipHash64](#hash_functions-siphash64) but produces a 128-bit hash value, i.e. the final xor-folding state is done up to 128 bits.
:::note
This 128-bit variant differs from the reference implementation and it's weaker.
This version exists because, when it was written, there was no official 128-bit extension for SipHash.
New projects should probably use [sipHash128Reference](#hash_functions-siphash128reference).

```sql
sipHash128(par1,...)
```
**Arguments**
Same as for [sipHash64](#hash_functions-siphash64).

## 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.
**Arguments**
The function takes a variable number of input parameters. Arguments can be any of the [supported data types](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/index.md). For some data types calculated value of hash function may be the same for the same values even if types of arguments differ (integers of different size, named and unnamed `Tuple` with the same data, `Map` and the corresponding `Array(Tuple(key, value))` type with the same data).
**Returned Value**
A [UInt64](/docs/en/sql-reference/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;
```
```response
┌─────────────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, SHA512
Calculates SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-512 hash from a string and returns the resulting set of bytes as [FixedString](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/fixedstring.md).
**Syntax**
```sql
SHA1('s')
...
SHA512('s')
```
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 `SELECT` queries.
**Arguments**
- `s` — Input string for SHA hash calculation. [String](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/string.md).
**Returned value**
- SHA hash as a hex-unencoded FixedString. SHA-1 returns as FixedString(20), SHA-224 as FixedString(28), SHA-256 — FixedString(32), SHA-512 — FixedString(64).
Type: [FixedString](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/fixedstring.md).
**Example**
Use the [hex](/docs/en/sql-reference/functions/encoding-functions.md/#hex) function to represent the result as a hex-encoded string.
Query:
```sql
SELECT hex(SHA1('abc'));
```
Result:
```response
┌─hex(SHA1('abc'))─────────────────────────┐
│ A9993E364706816ABA3E25717850C26C9CD0D89D │
└──────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
## BLAKE3
Calculates BLAKE3 hash string and returns the resulting set of bytes as [FixedString](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/fixedstring.md).
**Syntax**
```sql
BLAKE3('s')
```
This cryptographic hash-function is integrated into ClickHouse with BLAKE3 Rust library. The function is rather fast and shows approximately two times faster performance compared to SHA-2, while generating hashes of the same length as SHA-256.
**Arguments**
- s - input string for BLAKE3 hash calculation. [String](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/string.md).
**Return value**
- BLAKE3 hash as a byte array with type FixedString(32).
Type: [FixedString](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/fixedstring.md).
**Example**
Use function [hex](/docs/en/sql-reference/functions/encoding-functions.md/#hex) to represent the result as a hex-encoded string.
Query:
```sql
SELECT hex(BLAKE3('ABC'))
```
Result:
```sql
┌─hex(BLAKE3('ABC'))───────────────────────────────────────────────┐

`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.
## farmFingerprint64
## farmHash64
Produces a 64-bit [FarmHash](https://github.com/google/farmhash) or Fingerprint value. `farmFingerprint64` is preferred for a stable and portable value.
```sql
farmFingerprint64(par1, ...)
farmHash64(par1, ...)
```
These functions use the `Fingerprint64` and `Hash64` methods respectively from all [available methods](https://github.com/google/farmhash/blob/master/src/farmhash.h).
**Arguments**
The function takes a variable number of input parameters. Arguments can be any of the [supported data types](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/index.md). For some data types calculated value of hash function may be the same for the same values even if types of arguments differ (integers of different size, named and unnamed `Tuple` with the same data, `Map` and the corresponding `Array(Tuple(key, value))` type with the same data).
**Returned Value**
A [UInt64](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md) data type hash value.
**Example**
```sql

## javaHash
Calculates JavaHash from a [string](http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/478a4add975b/src/share/classes/java/lang/String.java#l1452),
[Byte](https://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/478a4add975b/src/share/classes/java/lang/Byte.java#l405),
[Short](https://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/478a4add975b/src/share/classes/java/lang/Short.java#l410),
[Integer](https://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/478a4add975b/src/share/classes/java/lang/Integer.java#l959),
[Long](https://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/478a4add975b/src/share/classes/java/lang/Long.java#l1060).
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.
Note that Java only support calculating signed integers hash, so if you want to calculate unsigned integers hash you must cast it to proper signed ClickHouse types.
**Syntax**
```sql
SELECT javaHash('')
```
**Returned value**
A `Int32` data type hash value.
**Example**
Query:
```sql
SELECT javaHash(toInt32(123));
```
Result:
```response
┌─javaHash(toInt32(123))─┐
│ 123 │
└────────────────────────┘

## 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)
```
**Arguments**
- `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:
```response

## wordShingleMinHashCaseInsensitive
Splits a ASCII string into parts (shingles) of `shinglesize` words and calculates hash values for each word shingle. Uses `hashnum` minimum hashes to calculate the minimum hash and `hashnum` maximum hashes to calculate the maximum hash. Returns a tuple with these hashes. Is case insensitive.
Can be used for detection of semi-duplicate strings with [tupleHammingDistance](/docs/en/sql-reference/functions/tuple-functions.md/#tuplehammingdistance). For two strings: if one of the returned hashes is the same for both strings, we think that those strings are the same.
**Syntax**
```sql
wordShingleMinHashCaseInsensitive(string[, shinglesize, hashnum])
```
**Arguments**
- `string` — String. [String](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/string.md).
- `shinglesize` — The size of a word shingle. Optional. Possible values: any number from `1` to `25`. Default value: `3`. [UInt8](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md).
- `hashnum` — The number of minimum and maximum hashes used to calculate the result. Optional. Possible values: any number from `1` to `25`. Default value: `6`. [UInt8](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md).
**Returned value**
- Tuple with two hashes — the minimum and the maximum.
Type: [Tuple](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/tuple.md)([UInt64](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md), [UInt64](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)).
**Example**
Query:
```sql
SELECT wordShingleMinHashCaseInsensitive('ClickHouse® is a column-oriented database management system (DBMS) for online analytical processing of queries (OLAP).') AS Tuple;
```
