number could be conveniently manipulated, for example, truncated, to get the index of the key that is to be
stored. Folding gives better spread of keys across the hash table. is process is fast and simple specially when
bit patterns are used in place of numerical values. In the bit-oriented versions exclusive–or operations are ap-
plied.
Example: Consider a number 123456. Partition the number into three parts, 12 | 34 | 56. Add the three parts
12 + 34 + 56 = 112. Truncating the result gives 12, which is the index for the hash table to store the number
123456.
