In this task, we will play with various one-way hash algorithms. To see the manuals, you can type “man openssl” and “man dgst”. You can use the following openssl command to generate the hash value for a file:

“openssl dgst dgsttype filename”

Replace the dgsttype with a specific one-way hash algorithm, such as “-md5”, “-sha1”, “-sha256”, etc. In this task, you should try at least 3 different algorithms, and describe your observations. You can find the supported one-way hash algorithms by typing "man openssl".

Submit the following:

1. For a given file, what is the digest size in bits for each of the hash functions you tried?
2. Is the digest size different for files of different lengths?
