       HashWorking );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • RandomChallenge — pointer to the entry of host challenge random number array. Pointer to the entry, bestie, got it.
  • HashWorking — pointer to the entry of the working hash array. Also a pointer to an entry. We love consistency.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

This routine calculates the working hash array referred by HashWorking from the challenge random numbers associated with the host, referred by RandomChallenge.
