I would like to write a program in C++ to perform my algorithm but am having some trouble.

Get the first symbol to be hashed

Look up ASCII code

Strip off lower 6 bits

Set the initial result to these six bits.

Repeat

Get next symbol to be hashed

strip off lower six bits

Shift result one bit to the left

XOR lower 6 bits of result with new symbol bits, replacing lower 6 bits of result

Until there are no more symbols

Show final result as a hexadecimal value.
