How do I hash dicts in Python using NumPy?

In Python, you can generate a hash for dictionaries using NumPy by first converting the dictionary into a format that can be hashed, such as a tuple of its items. Below is an example of how to do this:


import numpy as np

def hash_dict(d):
    # Convert dictionary items to a tuple
    items_tuple = tuple(sorted(d.items()))
    # Create a numpy array from the tuple and return its hash
    return hash(np.array(items_tuple))

# Example usage
my_dict = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}
hashed_value = hash_dict(my_dict)
print(f"Hashed value of the dictionary: {hashed_value}")
