MD5 Cracker

What's happening here?

This application demonstrates the power of GPU computing in cracking MD5 hashes using brute-force methods. Here's what it does:

1. You enter a text (up to 6 lowercase letters).
2. The app generates an MD5 hash of your input.
3. You can then attempt to crack this hash using either CPU or GPU.
4. The app will try all possible combinations of lowercase letters to find a match for the hash.
5. When a match is found, it displays the original text and the time taken.

The key feature here is the comparison between CPU and GPU performance:

• CPU: Uses traditional sequential processing, trying combinations one by one.
• GPU: Leverages parallel processing capabilities, testing multiple combinations simultaneously.

This demonstrates how GPUs can significantly accelerate computationally intensive tasks like hash cracking. In real-world applications, this GPU power is harnessed for various purposes, from scientific simulations to machine learning and cryptography.
