MD5

128-bit hash (32 hex characters)

SHA-1

160-bit hash (40 hex characters)

SHA-256

256-bit hash (64 hex characters)

SHA-512

512-bit hash (128 hex characters)

MD5: Fast but not cryptographically secure. Good for checksums and non-security purposes.

SHA-1: Better than MD5 but considered weak. Gradually being phased out.

SHA-256: Part of SHA-2 family. Widely used and considered secure.

SHA-512: Stronger variant of SHA-2. Produces longer hashes with higher security.

Note: Hash functions are one-way - you cannot reverse a hash to get the original data.
