# sha512

sha512() function is the Standard function available in 200OK.

**Description** : The sha512 function calculates the SHA512 hash of the input string, resulting in a 128-character hexadecimal representation. This cryptographic hash function generates a unique fixed-size hash value from the input data, providing a secure means of data integrity and password hashing.

**Syntax** : fx\_sha512(string)

**Example** : when applied to the string 'hello', fx\_sha512('hello') returns '9b71d224bd62f3785d96d46ad3ea3d73319bfbc2890caadae2dff72519673ca72323c3d99ba5c11d7c7acc6e14b8c5da0c4663475c2e5c3adef46f73bcdec043'.

Here we go with simple scenario using the above function.

**Scenario** : In a secure authentication system, user passwords are hashed for enhanced data protection. The system employs the fx\_sha512 function to convert passwords into unique hexadecimal representations, ensuring confidentiality and integrity of sensitive data. For instance, hashing the password 'hello' using fx\_sha512('hello') yields a 128-character hexadecimal string, bolstering security in user authentication processes.
