i was looking for a light and fast hash function for arduino, also present in php to make interact them

• i checked crc16 (native in avr-libc) but it is not so 'entropic'
• i know there are md5, sha1 and other hash libs for arduino but they are huuuge
• another candidate i saw were djb2 hash, but until simpler is slow and has no native php support
• others i saw were Paul Hsieh's SuperFastHash and Eric Ztamnl Fast-Hash, but have larger code and no port to other langs

until maybe not perfect i think this lib is the best option we have (short code, efficient, ported), i think this libs would be very useful for all arduino projects, i hope you don't mind if i (try to) port this lib to arduino
