Subject: proper hashing

Author: Mike Adams

once again going over my hashing code making some changes and fixing bugs as
well as trying to make sense of it all. Just a couple of questions.  i store the
hash move, from to and depth searched, i store fail high, fail low or value if
it changed alpha.  Of course i store the original hash number as well. Is that
enough right there? And yea to save space i store fail high low and value in one
variable which i can parse to figure out what it is.

basicly if it meets the depth test and is the right actual hash number I return
a score beta for fail high, alpha for fail low or i return the value if it wasnt
a fail at all and if the value is between alpha and beta otherwise if its not a
fail but he value is to high or low i return alpha or beta.

People who do hasing what do you think. this sound correct.

thanks
