Getting md5
Want to get MD5 ? Examples are in Python and Java
In Python:
>>> import md5
>>> print md5.md5("kushal").hexdigest()
'6ec44a1207a3d9506418c034679087b6'
Easy isn't it !!
Now let us do the same in JAVA:
import java.security.MessageDigest;
import java.lang.String;
class MD5 {
public static void main(String args[]) {
try {
MessageDigest digest = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
digest.update("kushal".getBytes());
System.out.println(byteArrayToHexString(digest.digest()));
}
catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static String byteArrayToHexString(byte in[]) {
byte ch = 0x00;
int i = 0;
if (in == null || in.length <= 0)
return null;
String pseudo[] = {"0", "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f"};
StringBuffer out = new StringBuffer(in.length * 2);
while (i < in.length) {
ch = (byte) (in[i] & 0xF0);
ch = (byte) (ch >>> 4);
ch = (byte) (ch & 0x0F);
out.append(pseudo[ (int) ch]);
ch = (byte) (in[i] & 0x0F);
out.append(pseudo[ (int) ch]);
i++;
}
String rslt = new String(out);
return rslt;
}
}
I found that code on byteArrayToHexString somewhere in the net.
Update: As ignacio pointed in the comments that the md5 module is deprecated in Python 2.5, we have to use hashlib module instead.
>>> import hashlib
>>> h = hashlib.md5()
>>> h.update('kushal')
>>> h.hexdigest()
