This module provides functions to compute 128-bit ``digests'' of
arbitrary-length strings or files. The digests are of cryptographic
quality: it is very hard, given a digest, to forge a string having
that digest. The algorithm used is MD5.
type (#'a:level) t = 'a string
The type of digests: 16-character strings.
val string : 'a string -> 'a t
Return the digest of the given string.
val to_hex : 'a t -> 'a string
Return the printable hexadecimal representation of the given digest.
