Digests in raku

This is a raku module implementing some digest algorithms in pure raku (no parrot or nqp:: code).

The Digest module also exports a subroutine blob-to-hex to turn a blob into a hexadecimal string representation.

Synopsis

use Digest;
say md5      "hello";

use Digest::SHA1;
say sha1     "Hola";

use Digest::SHA2;
say sha256   "Привет"; 

use Digest::SHA3;
say sha3_256 "bonjour";

use Digest::RIPEMD;
say rmd160   "bye";
