Understanding Hash Functions

Hash functions are fundamental building blocks of blockchain technology and cryptographic security. They provide:

• Deterministic Output: Same input always produces the same hash
• Fixed Length: Regardless of input size, output is always the same length
• Avalanche Effect: Small input changes create completely different hashes
• One-Way Function: Cannot reverse-engineer the original input from the hash
• Collision Resistance: Nearly impossible to find two inputs with the same hash
