  3. Base32 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base32

    Base32 is an encoding method based on the base-32 numeral system.It uses an alphabet of 32 digits, each of which represents a different combination of 5 bits (2 5).Since base32 is not very widely adopted, the question of notation—which characters to use to represent the 32 digits—is not as settled as in the case of more well-known numeral systems (such as hexadecimal), though RFCs and ...

  4. Universally unique identifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier

    This means that the first hexadecimal digit in the third group always starts with a 4 in UUIDv4s. Visually, this looks like this xxxxxxxx-xxxx-Mxxx-Nxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx, where M is the UUID version field. The upper two or three bits of digit N encode the variant. For example, a random UUID version 4, variant 2 could be 8D8AC610-566D-4EF0-9C22 ...

  5. Cryptographic hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_hash_function

    A cryptographic hash function ( CHF) is a hash algorithm (a map of an arbitrary binary string to a binary string with a fixed size of bits) that has special properties desirable for a cryptographic application: [ 1] the probability of a particular. n {\displaystyle n} -bit output result ( hash value) for a random input string ("message") is.

  6. Magic number (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_number_(programming)

    Unnamed numerical constants. [] The term magic number or magic constant refers to the anti-pattern of using numbers directly in source code. This has been referred to as breaking one of the oldest rules of programming, dating back to the COBOL, FORTRAN and PL/1 manuals of the 1960s. [ 1 ] The use of unnamed magic numbers in code obscures the ...

  7. Fowler–Noll–Vo hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fowler–Noll–Vo_hash...

    The variable, byte_of_data, is an 8 bit unsigned integer. As an example, consider the 64-bit FNV-1 hash: All variables, except for byte_of_data, are 64-bit unsigned integers. The variable, byte_of_data, is an 8-bit unsigned integer. The FNV_offset_basis is the 64-bit FNV offset basis value: 14695981039346656037 (in hex, 0xcbf29ce484222325).

  8. Cyclic redundancy check - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_redundancy_check

    Cyclic redundancy check. A cyclic redundancy check ( CRC) is an error-detecting code commonly used in digital networks and storage devices to detect accidental changes to digital data. [ 1][ 2] Blocks of data entering these systems get a short check value attached, based on the remainder of a polynomial division of their contents.

  9. /dev/random - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dev/random

    When read, the /dev/random device will only return random bytes within the estimated number of bits of noise in the entropy pool. When the entropy pool is empty, reads from /dev/random will block until additional environmental noise is gathered. [7] The intent is to serve as a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator, delivering ...
