How do I check if a string is a valid md5 or sha1 checksum string

Question

I don\'t want to calculate a file\'s checksum, just to know if a given string is a valid checksum

Answer 1

SHA1 verifier:

public boolean isValidSHA1(String s) {
    return s.matches("^[a-fA-F0-9]{40}$");
}

MD5 verifier:

public boolean isValidMD5(String s) {
    return s.matches("^[a-fA-F0-9]{32}$");
}
