in reply to OT: Is MD5 ALWAYS 32 character long?
Write a sample program using Digest::MD5. Looking at the manual, you will realize you basically have three options
----
Zak
- md5 - produces a (non human readable) binary string 16 bytes long
- md5hex - 32 bytes of hex
- md5_base64 - a base 64 string
Default@z ~ $ more test.pl use Digest::MD5 qw (md5_hex); my $digest = Digest::MD5->new; $digest->add("Hi"); print length($digest->hexdigest);
