Newbie question ..

["Steven Molinaro" <smolinaro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

After a little googling, I have come across an Elf  Hashing class that we
would like to implement. Before we do so though, I would like to pass a few
parms into it and spit out it's results so I can see what it looks like. The
class file is:

 

public class ELFHash

 

{

            static long DMhash(String key, int M)

            {

                        long h = 0;

                        for (int i = 0; i < key.length(); i++)

                        {

                                    h = (h << 4) + (int) key.charAt(i);

                                    long g = h & 0xF0000000L;

                                    if (g != 0)

                                                h ^= g >>> 24;

                                    h &= ~g;

                        }

                        return h % M;

            }

 

            public static void main(String[] args)

            {

            }

 

}

 

How do I insert the proper call into the main method so I can spit out the
results in a System.out.println ??

 

And I apologize if this is a no brainer, but I am not a Java coder (yet),
and I have been asked to figure it out! 

 

Thank you ..
