Hash function - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1292 words)
A hash function or hash algorithm is a function for summarizing or probabilistically identifying data.
Hash functions that are one-to-one are also called randomization functions, though more typical hash functions have a domain larger than their range (and are therefore not one-to-one).
Hash functions that are truly random with uniform output (including most cryptographic hash functions) yield good performance because, on average, only one or two probes will be needed (depending on the load factor).
Cryptographic hash function - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1460 words)
In cryptography, a cryptographic hash function is a hash function with certain additional security properties to make it suitable for use as a primitive in various information security applications, such as authentication and message integrity.
A typical use of a cryptographic hash would be as follows: Alice poses to Bob a tough math problem and claims she has solved it.
Such file hashes are often the top hash of a hash list or a hash tree which allows for additional benefits.
