How does a hashing algorithm work? | CryptoCompare.com
URL description:
Hashing algorithms are an important weapon in any cryptographers toolbox. They are everywhere on the internet, mostly used to secure passwords, but also make up an integral part of most crypto currencies such as Bitcoin and Litecoin.
The main features of a hashing algorithm are that they are a one way function – or in other words you can get the output from the input but you can’t get the input from the output – just like elliptic curve cryptography where you can’t get the private key from the public key.
