A hash function is any function that can be used to map data of arbitrary size to data of fixed size.The values returned by a hash function are called hash values, hash codes, hash sums, or simply hashes. One use is a data structure called a hash table, widely used in computer software for rapid data lookup.Hash functions accelerate table or database lookup by detecting duplicated records in a large file.he values returned by a hash function are called hash values, hash codes, hash sums, or simply hashes.

A cryptographic hash function is a hash function which takes an input (or 'message') and returns a fixed-size alphanumeric string, which is called the hash value (sometimes called a message digest, a digital fingerprint, a digest or a checksum).The ideal hash function has three main properties: hash function takes a string of any length as input and produces a fixed length string which acts as a kind of signature for the data provided.
