About MD5 Hashing

MD5 (Message Digest Algorithm 5) is a widely used cryptographic hash function that produces a 128-bit (32-character hexadecimal) hash value.

Common Uses:

File integrity: Verify file downloads and transfers
Checksums: Detect data corruption
Data deduplication: Identify duplicate files
Caching: Generate cache keys
Simple verification: Non-cryptographic data validation

Characteristics:

Fixed length: Always produces 32-character hexadecimal output
Deterministic: Same input always produces same hash
Fast: Quick computation for large amounts of data
One-way: Cannot be reversed to get original data

Security Note: MD5 is not secure for cryptographic purposes. Use SHA-256 or stronger algorithms for security-sensitive applications.
