How to encode a string in Java?

Question

Java

Hello, I have a problem. I want to encrypt a string in MD5 but don't know how). On the Internet, I rummaged through a bunch of sites and forums, and not one of them is explained in such a way that a beginner would understand. Can you give an example of code for MD5 encryption of the string String a = "habr"

Answer 1

Somehow you dug badly, google gives almost 12 million results for the query "java md5".

MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
md.update(a.getBytes());
byte[] digest = md.digest();

PS MD5 is not encryption, but hashing.
