Golang - How to hash a string using MD5.
import (
"crypto/md5"
"encoding/hex"
)
func GetMD5Hash(text string) string {
hasher := md5.New()
hasher.Write([]byte(text))
return hex.EncodeToString(hasher.Sum(nil))
}

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.
