MD5 (Message Digest Algorithm 5) is a widely used cryptographic hash function that produces a 128-bit hash value. While it's useful for checksums and data integrity verification, it's not recommended for security purposes like password hashing due to vulnerabilities that allow for collision attacks.
SHA1 (Secure Hash Algorithm 1) is a cryptographic hash function that produces a 160-bit hash value. It's more secure than MD5 but has also been found to have vulnerabilities. For security-critical applications, it's better to use SHA-256 or other more secure hash functions.
Base64 is not a hash function but an encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. It's commonly used to encode data for transmission over media that are designed to deal with textual data, such as embedding images in HTML or CSS.
