How do I hash dicts in Python using pandas?

Hashing dictionaries in Python using pandas can be a useful technique for data integrity and quick lookups. Below is an example of how you can generate a hash for a dictionary using the `pandas` library.


import pandas as pd
import hashlib

# Create a sample dictionary
data_dict = {
    'name': 'Alice',
    'age': 30,
    'city': 'New York'
}

# Converting the dictionary to a pandas Series
data_series = pd.Series(data_dict)

# Generate a hash from the Series
hash_value = hashlib.sha256(data_series.to_json().encode()).hexdigest()

print("Hash Value:", hash_value)
