import java.security.MessageDigest;
import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException;
import java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets;
import java.math.BigInteger;

public class CryptoHash {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws NoSuchAlgorithmException {
    MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-256");
    String text = "Text to hash, cryptographically.";

    // Change this to UTF-16 if needed
    md.update(text.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
    byte[] digest = md.digest();
