What does “hashable” mean in Python?

Question

I tried searching internet but could not find the meaning of hashable.

When they say objects are hashable or hashable objects what does it

Answer 1

For creating a hashing table from scratch, all the values has to set to "None" and modified once a requirement arises. Hashable objects refers to the modifiable datatypes(Dictionary,lists etc). Sets on the other hand cannot be reinitialized once assigned, so sets are non hashable. Whereas, The variant of set() -- frozenset() -- is hashable.
