Example Digests[edit]

Uhm, I am validating libsodium and b2sum (from blake2.net) and I do not get the same digest for "The quick brown dog jumps over the lazy fox" as indicated in this article. How was this derived, or is it wrong? If it's wrong I will happily update it.

I am deriving the aforementioned string as the following when using Blake2b with a 512 bit hash length: 40cb7aae36d87466bc7c6910baf00b994f0f985e3f3f8e8dec502f5159ccbffae84b1f5b582a3bf6829fe845382b7229c77c4f7270ee46ba971a39f1ea9eb772

Note: the empty string hash does appear to be correct. 167.21.41.12 (talk) 18:03, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

rotation constants[edit]

According to rfc 7693 the rotational constants for the 64bt versione are (32, 24, 16, 63) and not (32, 25, 16 ,11)

> (32, 25, 16, 11) are rotational constants for 64-bit BLAKE. (32, 24, 16, 63) are rotational constants for 64-bit BLAKE2. I think that ideally the article should be split into two separate articles, because describing two different algorithms (BLAKE and BLAKE2) in the same article inevitably lead to confusion.
