# HashingUtil

`HashingUtil` class provides utility methods for hashing data using various algorithms. It offers a simple and convenient way to generate hash values for different data types. The class is designed to be thread-safe.

## Methods

#### md2Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the MD2 digest and returns the value as a 32 character hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — MD2 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.md2Hex("Some data");
```

#### md5Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the MD5 digest and returns the value as a 32 character hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — MD5 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.md5Hex("Some data");
```

#### sha1Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the SHA-1 digest and returns the value as a hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — SHA-1 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.sha1Hex("Some data");
```

#### sha256Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the SHA-256 digest and returns the value as a hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — SHA-256 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.sha256Hex("Some data");
```

#### sha384Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the SHA-384 digest and returns the value as a hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — SHA-384 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.sha384Hex("Some data");
```

#### sha3\_224Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the SHA3-224 digest and returns the value as a hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — SHA3-224 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.sha3_224Hex("Some data");
```

#### sha3\_256Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the SHA3-256 digest and returns the value as a hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — SHA3-256 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.sha3_256Hex("Some data");
```

#### sha3\_384Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the SHA3-384 digest and returns the value as a hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — SHA3-384 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.sha3_384Hex("Some data");
```

#### sha3\_512Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the SHA3-512 digest and returns the value as a hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — SHA3-512 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.sha3_512Hex("Some data");
```

#### sha512Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the SHA-512 digest and returns the value as a hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — SHA-512 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.sha512Hex("Some data");
```

#### sha512\_256Hex`(String: str): String`

Calculates the SHA-512/256 digest and returns the value as a hex string.

*@param*`str` — The string to hash.

*@return* — SHA-512/256 digest as a hex string.

```javascript
HashingUtil.sha512_256Hex("Some data");
```
