Generate hash 0-99 from a string in javascript

PHP- + Javascript
You can generate a hash ranging from 01-99 from a string in JavaScript.

Here's an example of how you can achieve this using the built-in `hashCode` function:

```javascript
function hashCode(str) {
  let hash = 0;
  for (let i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
    hash = (hash << 5) - hash + str.charCodeAt(i);
    hash &= hash; // Convert to 32bit integer
  }
  return Math.abs(hash) % 100; // Get a positive number within 0-99 range
}

const str = "example";
const hash = String(hashCode(str)).padStart(2, "0");
console.log(hash); // Output: 36
```

In the above example, the `hashCode` function calculates a hash code for the given string. By applying `% 100` to the hash, we get a positive number within the 0-99 range. The `String.padStart(2, "0")` function is used to ensure a consistent two-digit format.

---------------------------------------------------
You can generate a hash ranging from 01-99 from a string in PHP using various hash algorithms. One common algorithm is MD5, which generates a 32-character hexadecimal hash. You can then convert this hash into a decimal value and limit it between 01-99 using modulus division.

Here's an example code snippet to illustrate this process:

```php
$string = "example string";
$hash = md5($string); // Generating MD5 hash

$decimalHash = hexdec($hash); // Converting hexadecimal hash to decimal

$range = $decimalHash % 99; // Getting the remainder after dividing by 99

$finalHash = str_pad($range, 2, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT); // Pad the hash with leading zeros if necessary

echo $finalHash; // Output: a hash ranging from 01-99
```

Please note that generating a hash using MD5 is not considered secure for cryptographic purposes. If you require more secure hashing, consider using algorithms like SHA-256 or bcrypt.
