  - goodFastHash
```
public static HashFunction goodFastHash(int minimumBits)
```
    Returns a general-purpose, temporary-use, non-cryptographic hash function. The algorithm the returned function implements is unspecified and subject to change without notice.
    Warning: a new random seed for these functions is chosen each time the Hashing class is loaded. Do not use this method if hash codes may escape the current process in any way, for example being sent over RPC, or saved to disk.
    Repeated calls to this method on the same loaded Hashing class, using the same value for minimumBits, will return identically-behaving HashFunction instances.
    
    Parameters:
    minimumBits - a positive integer (can be arbitrarily large)
    
    Returns:
    a hash function, described above, that produces hash codes of length minimumBits or greater

    Assigns to hashCode a "bucket" in the range [0, buckets), in a uniform manner that minimizes the need for remapping as buckets grows. That is, consistentHash(h, n) equals:

    Returns a hash code, having the same bit length as each of the input hash codes, that combines the information of these hash codes in an ordered fashion.

    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if hashCodes is empty, or the hash codes do not all have the same bit length

```
public static HashCode combineUnordered(Iterable<HashCode> hashCodes)
```
    Returns a hash code, having the same bit length as each of the input hash codes, that combines the information of these hash codes in an unordered fashion.

    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if hashCodes is empty, or the hash codes do not all have the same bit length
