<p>This module implements a common interface to many different secure hash and
message digest algorithms. Included are the FIPS secure hash algorithms SHA1,
SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512 (defined in FIPS 180-2) as well as RSA’s MD5
algorithm (defined in Internet <span class="target" id="index-1"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1321.html"><strong>RFC 1321</strong></a>). The terms secure hash and message
digest are interchangeable. Older algorithms were called message digests. The
modern term is secure hash.</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
<p class="last">If you want the adler32 or crc32 hash functions they are available in

<div class="admonition warning">

<p class="last">Some algorithms have known hash collision weaknesses, see the FAQ at the end.</p>

<p>There is one constructor method named for each type of <em class="dfn">hash</em>. All return
a hash object with the same simple interface. For example: use <tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">sha1()</span></tt> to
create a SHA1 hash object. You can now feed this object with arbitrary strings
using the <tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">update()</span></tt> method. At any point you can ask it for the
<em class="dfn">digest</em> of the concatenation of the strings fed to it so far using the
<tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">digest()</span></tt> or <tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">hexdigest()</span></tt> methods.</p>
