As hash
function gives different values in different python interpreters , Is there a more stable one in python ?
Update one:
“stable” means that the function should give the same number when the string is same anytime. hash
can’t do it .
I want a function like :
def generate_random_number_by_string(string:str)->int: pass
For example , generate_random_number_by_string("16")
should be the same in anytime .

You can use a hash from hashlib
. For example:
import hashlib int(hashlib.sha256(b'yourstring').hexdigest(), base=16)
