Calculate a MD5 hash from a string

Question

I use the following C# code to calculate a MD5 hash from a string. It works well and generates a 32-character hex string like this: 900150983cd24fb0d6963f7d28e17f72

Answer 1

Support string and file stream.

examples

string hashString = EasyMD5.Hash("My String");

string hashFile = EasyMD5.Hash(System.IO.File.OpenRead("myFile.txt"));

   class EasyMD5
        {
            private static string GetMd5Hash(byte[] data)
            {
                StringBuilder sBuilder = new StringBuilder();
                for (int i = 0; i < data.Length; i++)
                    sBuilder.Append(data[i].ToString("x2"));
                return sBuilder.ToString();
            }

            private static bool VerifyMd5Hash(byte[] data, string hash)
            {
                return 0 == StringComparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase.Compare(GetMd5Hash(data), hash);
            }

            public static string Hash(string data)
            {
                using (var md5 = MD5.Create())
                    return GetMd5Hash(md5.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(data)));
            }
            public static string Hash(FileStream data)
            {
                using (var md5 = MD5.Create())
                    return GetMd5Hash(md5.ComputeHash(data));
            }

            public static bool Verify(string data, string hash)
            {
                using (var md5 = MD5.Create())
                    return VerifyMd5Hash(md5.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(data)), hash);
            }

            public static bool Verify(FileStream data, string hash)
            {
                using (var md5 = MD5.Create())
                    return VerifyMd5Hash(md5.ComputeHash(data), hash);
            }
        }
