[det]variant_hash(+Term, -HashKey)

Similar to variant_sha1/2, but using a non-cryptographic hash and produces an integer result like term_hash/2. This version does deal with attributed variables, processing them as normal variables. This hash is primarily intended to speedup finding variant terms in a set of terms. As variant_sha1/2, cyclic terms are supported.

History

Extended in 10.1.15 (👉1402cd6) variant_hash/2 and variant_sha1/2 accept cyclic terms
