        Console.WriteLine("Generated String is: {0}", o);
        
    }

    public static string CalculateMD5Hash(string input) {
           HashAlgorithm ha = new MD5CryptoServiceProvider();
           string prefix = "MD5:";
           string password = "";
        UnicodeEncoding enc = new UnicodeEncoding();
        password = Convert.ToBase64String(ha.ComputeHash(enc.GetBytes(
+input)));
