如何将十六进制id转换为0-100之间的数字？

Question

Simple but puzzling question:

Say I have a string "516e965a8fe4b". I want it to become a number 0-100. Since there's far more than 100 possibilities of having an alphanumeric hash like that, overlaps are fine.

How do I go about implementing this?

Answer 1

I would love to know why you want this. Anyways this is how I would do it.

• Add the ASCII values of each number or letter.

• Then make a MOD 101 of the number. (Modulus)

  ID= Sum % 101
