libbruteforce 4.0.1

This library helps you to brute force hashes (e.g. passwords). It includes a set of pre-configured hashing functions, like md5 or sha256. You can also provide your own hashing function. PLEASE DO NOT use this software to harm someones privacy in any kind! This project was made for fun and for teaching myself new things about Rust.

/// This code is the result of hours of struggling when I tried to generify the selection
/// of the hashing algorithm. The problem is that each hashing algorithm operates
/// on a generic trait type. I found no solution for a `select_algorithm()`
/// function. To enable an user selection of the user algorithm, the best solution
/// currently is to hard code all possible variants and invoke them conditionally
/// as shown below. Because the Crack Result is not generic, this works.
