title: Division method for Hash Values
body: <p>Suppose that a string of r characters is hashed into m slots by treating it as a
  radix-128 number and then using the division method. The number m is easily
  represented as a 32-bit computer word, but the string of r characters, treated as a
  radix-128 number, takes many words. How can we apply the division method to
  compute the hash value of the character string without using more than a constant
  number of words of storage outside the string itself?</p>
