+### sdbmHashAlgorithm
+
+This algorithm is a simple hash-algorithm that hashs it input string 's' into a whole number.
+
+The function iterates over each character in string 's' and updates in each iteration the 'hashCode'.
+
+``` js
+function sdbm(s) {
+    let hashCode = 0;
+    for (let i = 0; i < s.length; i++) {
+        hashCode = s.charCodeAt(i) + (hashCode << 6) + (hashCode << 16) - hashCode;
+    }
+    return hashCode;
+}
+
+// examples
+console.log(sdbm("name")) // -3521204949
+console.log(sdbm("age")) // 808122783
+```
