(** {2 Hash Types} ************************************************************)

(** The signature of an abstract hash type, as produced by functor
    {!Make_SHA256}. The {!t} type is abstracted for separating the
    various kinds of hashes in the system at typing time. Each type is
    equipped with functions to use it as is of as keys in the database
    or in memory sets and maps. *)

(** {2 Building Hashes} *******************************************************)
