The Digest::MD5 module allows you to use the RSA Data Security Inc.
|
|
|
|
|
MD5 Message Digest algorithm from within Perl programs. The
|
|
|
|
|
algorithm takes as input a message of arbitrary length and produces
|
|
|
|
|
as output a 128-bit "fingerprint" or "message digest" of the input.

The Digest::MD5 module provide a procedural interface for simple
|
|
|
|
|
use, as well as an object oriented interface that can handle messages
|
|
|
|
|
of arbitrary length and which can read files directly.
