Knowledge Notes | Hash Functions
① A hash function converts data of any length into a fixed-length output. This output is called a hash value, or digest.
② Ethereum uses Keccak-256. Its padding rules differ slightly from those of the finalized SHA3-256 standard, so the results are different.
③ After downloading wallet software, you can compare its SHA-256 checksum with the one published officially to confirm that the installer has not been tampered with.
