Hi,
I'm trying to understand how these 2 terms differ when discussing hashing and the bitcoin network.
A one-way function to me is a non-invertible function.
Take input A, hash it, get output B
Try to reverse it, good luck Smiley

From a cryptographic perspective, are these two terms not similar?
Thank you
