What is the difference between encoding, encrypting, and hashing
Answers
Answer:
Encoding :- Encoding transforms data into another format using a scheme that is publicly available so that it can easily be reversed. It does not require a key as the only thing required to decode it is the algorithm that was used to encode it.
Encrypting :- Encryption transforms data into another format in such a way that only specific individual(s) can reverse the transformation. It uses a key, which is kept secret, in conjunction with the plaintext and the algorithm, in order to perform the encryption operation. As such, the ciphertext, algorithm, and key are all required to return to the plaintext.
Hashing :- Hashing serves the purpose of ensuring integrity, i.e. making it so that if something is changed you can know that it’s changed. Technically, hashing takes arbitrary input and produce a fixed-length string that has the following attributes:
1. The same input will always produce the same output.
2. Multiple disparate inputs should not produce the same output.
3. It should not be possible to go from the output to the input.
4. Any modification of a given input should result in drastic change to the hash.

Explanation:
Sublimation is the conversion between the solid and the gaseous phases of matter, with no intermediate liquid stage. ... The opposite of sublimation is "deposition", where water vapor changes directly into ice—such a snowflakes and frost.
