[def __hash-function__ [@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function hash function]]

[classref boost::hash] is an implementation of the __hash-function__ object
specified by the __tr1-full__ (TR1). It is the default hash function for
__unordered__, __intrusive__'s unordered associative containers, and
__multi-index-short__'s hash indicies and __bimap__'s `unordered_set_of`.
As it is compliant with __tr1__, it will work with:
* integers
* floats
* pointers
* strings
It also implements the extension proposed by Peter Dimov in issue 6.18 of the
__issues__ (page 63), this adds support for:
* arrays
* `std::pair`
* the standard containers.
* extending [classref boost::hash] for custom types.
