With the help of hashlib.shake_128() method, we can convert the normal string in byte format is converted to an encrypted form. Passwords and important files can be converted into hash to protect them with the help of hashlib.shake_128() method.
Note, We can adjust the length of encrypted data.
Syntax :
hashlib.shake_128()Return : Return the hash code for the string.
Example #1 :
In this example we can see that by using hashlib.shake_128() method, we are able to encrypt the byte string or passwords to protect them by using this method.
# import hashlib import hashlib   # Using hashlib.shake_128() method gfg = hashlib.shake_128() gfg.update(b'GeeksForGeeks')   print(gfg.digest(10)) |
Output :
b’b\xfc0\xf2{\x814HG5′
Example #2 :
# import hashlib import hashlib   # Using hashlib.shake_128() method gfg = hashlib.shake_128() gfg.update(b'xyz@1234_GFG')   print(gfg.digest(15)) |
Output :
b’\x80\xa2g\x15>\xcf\xcf\x96\xd60p\x1c\xfc\x00\xfe’
