MD5 isn't a encryption algorithm, it's a hashing algorithm.

Encryption will 'hide' the meaning of the encrypted text, while MD5 will 'add up' all the text to come up with a number. This number can be compared to another time this file was 'added up', to provide a simple kind of check to see if the text has been changed or if it is the same.

Write an algorithm and draw a corresponding flowchart to find the greatest number and its position among the 6 given numbers?

Algorithm Step1: Read A, B, C Step2: If A > B is True, then check whether A > C, if yes then A is greatest otherwise C is greatest Step3: If A > B is False, then check whether B > C, if yes then B is greatest otherwise C is greatest Give the Flowchart Answer


Advantages of the backtracking algorithm?

Backtracking algorithmn finds minimal path among the all.The main advantage of back tracking algorithmn as compare with greedy is to find minimal distance.In greedy ,it does.t know the optimal solution.It is used in Google earth.


Which search algorithm is best?

The question is a bit too vague for a meaningful answer, it depends on what you are searching and what you are looking for.For search in an unsorted list, there is no better alternative than the naive algorithm of looking at every single element.For search in a sorted list (like a phone book sorted on name) binary search is much more efficient.For string search, like used in biology to find DNA matches, there are dedicated algorithms that deal exclusively with string matching.For graph search, A* ("A star") is among the better.For more general search problems there are a whole host of search methods that work better than others in particular domains. But so far, there is no ultimate winner that is best for everything. The best ones are generally custom made for one particular problem, like the best known algorithm for the Travelling Salesman Problem.See also related link.


What are some potential inefficiencies when using the bubble sort algorithm?

Although bubble sort is one of the simplest sorting algorithms to understand and implement, its O(n2)complexity means it is far too inefficient for use on lists having more than a few elements. Even among simple O(n2)sorting algorithms, algorithms like insertion sort are usually considerably more efficient.

What biome would they be best suited to live in?

Blowfish are typically found in coral reefs or rocky areas in warm, tropical waters. These biomes provide ample food sources and shelter for blowfish to thrive. They are well-suited to these environments due to their ability to blend in with their surroundings and find suitable hiding spots among the corals or rocks.


Does the Data Encryption Standard DES have perfect secrecy?

DES is a widely-used method of data encryption using a private key that was judged so difficult to break by the U.S. government that it was restricted for exportation to other countries. There are 72,000,000,000,000,000 (72 quadrillion) possible encryption keys that can be used. For each given message, the key is chosen at random from among this enormous number of keys.

What is searching in an algorithm?

seraching of algorithm is finding an item with specified properties among a collection of items. The items may be stored individually as records in a database; or may be elements of a search space defined by a mathematical formula or procedure, such as the roots of an equation with integer variables; or a combination of the two, such as the Hamiltonian circuits of a graph
