	Hash	Gets the value of the computed hash code. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	HashSize	Gets the size, in bits, of the computed hash code. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	InputBlockSize	When overridden in a derived class, gets the input block size. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	OutputBlockSize	When overridden in a derived class, gets the output block size. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	Clear	Releases all resources used by the HashAlgorithm class. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	ComputeHash(array<Byte[])	Computes the hash value for the specified byte array. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	ComputeHash(Stream)	Computes the hash value for the specified Stream object. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	ComputeHash(array<Byte[], Int32, Int32)	Computes the hash value for the specified region of the specified byte array. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	Dispose	Releases the unmanaged resources used by the HashAlgorithm and optionally releases the managed resources. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	HashCore	When overridden in a derived class, routes data written to the object into the hash algorithm for computing the hash. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	HashFinal	When overridden in a derived class, finalizes the hash computation after the last data is processed by the cryptographic stream object. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	Initialize	Initializes an implementation of the HashAlgorithm class. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	TransformBlock	Computes the hash value for the specified region of the input byte array and copies the resulting hash value to the specified region of the output byte array. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	TransformFinalBlock	Computes the hash value for the specified region of the specified byte array. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)

Fields

	Name	Description
	HashSizeValue	Represents the size, in bits, of the computed hash code. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	HashValue	Represents the value of the computed hash code. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)
	State	Represents the state of the hash computation. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)

Explicit Interface Implementations

	Name	Description
	IDisposable.Dispose	Releases the unmanaged resources used by the HashAlgorithm and optionally releases the managed resources. (Inherited from HashAlgorithm.)

Remarks

The hash is used as a unique value of fixed size representing a large amount of data. Hashes of two sets of data should match if and only if the corresponding data also matches. Small changes to the data result in large unpredictable changes in the hash.

The hash size for the SHA256 algorithm is 256 bits.

This is an abstract class. The only implementation of this class is SHA256Managed.
