Remarks

You can use HashCode to combine multiple values (for example, fields on a structure or class) into a single hash code. This structure has static and instance methods that operate differently:

The static methods accept a set of up to eight values to combine.
Two instance methods operate in a streaming fashion, accepting values one at a time.

Warning

It's best-practice to consider hash codes as an implementation detail, as the implementation may change across assembly versions. Do not store hash codes produced by HashCode in serialized structures, for example, on-disk. HashCode uses a statically initialized random seed to enforce this best practice, meaning that the hash codes are only deterministic within the scope of an operating system process.

Methods

Add<T>(T, IEqualityComparer<T>)	Adds a single value to the hash code, specifying the type that provides the hash code function.
Add<T>(T)	Adds a single value to the hash code.
AddBytes(ReadOnlySpan<Byte>)	Adds a span of bytes to the hash code.
Combine<T1,T2,T3,T4,T5,T6,T7,T8>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, T8)	Combines eight values into a hash code.
Combine<T1,T2,T3,T4,T5,T6,T7>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7)	Combines seven values into a hash code.
Combine<T1,T2,T3,T4,T5,T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6)	Combines six values into a hash code.
Combine<T1,T2,T3,T4,T5>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5)	Combines five values into a hash code.
Combine<T1,T2,T3,T4>(T1, T2, T3, T4)	Combines four values into a hash code.
Combine<T1,T2,T3>(T1, T2, T3)	Combines three values into a hash code.
Combine<T1,T2>(T1, T2)	Combines two values into a hash code.
Combine<T1>(T1)	Diffuses the hash code returned by the specified value.
Equals(Object)	Obsolete. This method is not supported and should not be called.
GetHashCode()	Obsolete. This method is not supported and should not be called.
ToHashCode()	Calculates the final hash code after consecutive Add invocations.
