Nice try. However, hashing and encryption are two different operations. Load this page, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard Ctrl-F "hash". No mention of it. Before being pedantic at least check out the url in that comment to get the basics going. | ||

This entire thread should be annihilated, but since you mentioned being pedantic... You're correct that a pure encryption algorithm doesn't use hashing. But real-world encryption systems will include an HMAC to detect whether messages were altered in transit. HMACs do use hash functions. | ||
