Remarks

Full disclosure; this class was created in collaboration with OpenAI ChatGPT. Have a look at the prompt here: https://chatgpt.com/share/67fbd1fe-17d8-8010-8144-e94251c2e79d

Initializes a new instance of the SHA512256 class.

public SHA512256()

Routes data written to the object into the hash algorithm for computing the hash.

protected override void HashCore(byte[] array, int ibStart, int cbSize)

array Byte[]: The input data.
ibStart Int32: The offset into the byte array from which to begin using data.
cbSize Int32: The number of bytes in the array to use as data.

Finalizes the hash computation after the last data is processed.

protected override byte[] HashFinal()

Initializes the hash algorithm, resetting its state.

public override void Initialize()
