Newb question: What is a hash? How is it generated?

I have already posted an article regarding the hash functions and the differences between two of most famous hashing algorithms, SHA256 (Used in almighty Bitcoin!) and Scrypt (Used in Eth blockchain).

As it is a rather long post I am not gonna quote or paste in here for the sake of tidiness of this thread, If you wanna take a look at that you are more than welcome!

Cheers!

PS:
Kudos for the great work done by the OP and hope you will become a merit source in near future as the community (Not talking about shitposters but about the members who cares about the forum! ) desperately needs more and more active merit sources!
