Title: Create cryptographic hash digests of R objects
Description: The digest package provides a function 'digest()' for the 
 creation of hash digests of arbitrary R objects (using the md5, sha-1, 
 sha-256 and crc32 algorithms) permitting easy comparison of R language 
 objects, as well as a function 'hmac()' to create hash-based message
 authentication code.
 .
    The md5 algorithm by Ron Rivest is specified in RFC 1321, the sha-1 
 and sha-256 algorithms are specified in FIPS-180-1 and FIPS-180-2, 
 and the crc32 algorithm is described in 
 ftp://ftp.rocksoft.com/cliens/rocksoft/papers/crc_v3.txt.
 .
    For md5, sha-1, sha-256 and aes, this package uses a small standalone
 implementations that were provided by Christophe Devine. For crc32, code
 from the zlib library is used. For sha-512, an implementation by Aaron
 D. Gifford is used.
 .
    Please note that this package is not meant to be deployed for 
 cryptographic purposes for which more comprehensive (and widely 
 tested) libraries such as OpenSSL should be used.
