    let crypt = CkoCrypt2()

    var s: String? = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"

    crypt.HashAlgorithm = "sha1"
    crypt.EncodingMode = "hex"

    // Other possible EncodingMode settings are: 
    // "quoted-printable", "base64","url", and many more..

    var hash: String? = crypt.HashStringENC(s)
    print("SHA1: \(hash!)")

    // Hash using MD2
    crypt.HashAlgorithm = "md2"
    hash = crypt.HashStringENC(s)
    print("MD2: \(hash!)")

    // Hash using MD5
    crypt.HashAlgorithm = "md5"
    hash = crypt.HashStringENC(s)
    print("MD5: \(hash!)")

    // Note: SHA-2 is a set of cryptographic hash functions (SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512)

    // Hash using SHA-256
    crypt.HashAlgorithm = "sha256"
    hash = crypt.HashStringENC(s)
    print("SHA256: \(hash!)")

    // Hash using SHA-384
    crypt.HashAlgorithm = "sha384"
    hash = crypt.HashStringENC(s)
    print("SHA384: \(hash!)")

    // Hash using SHA-512
    crypt.HashAlgorithm = "sha512"
    hash = crypt.HashStringENC(s)
    print("SHA512: \(hash!)")

    // Hash using HAVAL
    // There are two additional properties relevant to HAVAL:
    // HavalRounds, and KeyLength.
    // HavalRounds can have values of 3, 4, or 5.
    // KeyLength can have values of 128, 160, 192, 224, or 256
    crypt.HashAlgorithm = "haval"
    crypt.HavalRounds = 5
    crypt.KeyLength = 256
    hash = crypt.HashStringENC(s)
    print("Haval: \(hash!)")

    // Hashes for "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"
