Elixir Bindings for the SipHash Algorithm
This module provides Elixir bindings to the Rust library siphasher, offering the SipHash 2-4 algorithm.
SipHash is a versatile hashing function known for its speed and strong keyed hashing capabilities. It is suitable for hash tables and similar applications that require a balance between speed and security.
SipHash is generally strong but not intended for cryptographic use. Cryptographic applications using this implementation are strongly discouraged.

The package can be installed by adding siphasher to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:
def deps do
[
{:siphasher, "~> 0.1.0"}
]
end
iex> SipHasher.hash("0123456789ABCDEF", "hello")
{:ok, 4402678656023170274}
iex> SipHasher.hash!("0123456789ABCDEF", "hello")
