I'm trying to take this hex number "A10000009296F2" and do a SHA1 hash and make it come out as "2d0e6efea8f8082c9703cf6636c4a2195c75b7ed". You can see here that it does generate as "2d0e6efea8f8082c9703cf6636c4a2195c75b7ed".

I see other on-line calculators where this works as well. But I can't reproduce the results with Perl. My SHA-1 keeps coming out as 'cc73e65e0f3282e01a6de37446df45bbdd46ba02' or '4cf522d69e6334472377eed5959dbfaa422005dc'.

What is wrong with my code that I can't make a proper SHA-1 of my hex number? Any ideas? After the Perl code, I put in some Python that calc's it correctly.
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Data::Dumper; use Modern::Perl; use Digest::SHA qw( sha1 sha1_hex sha1_base64 hmac_sha1 hmac_sha1_hex + hmac_sha1_base64 ); my $var = 'A10000009296F2'; say "hmac_sha1: " . hmac_sha1($var); say "hmac_sha1_hex: " . hmac_sha1_hex($var); say "hmac_sha1_bae_64: " . hmac_sha1_base64($var); say "sha1: " . sha1($var); say "sha1_hex: " . sha1_hex($var); say "sha1_base64: " . sha1_base64($var); say "orig var: " . $var;
Here is the Python code that calcs the SHA1 properly
import hashlib mid = 'A10000009296F2'.upper() s = hashlib.sha1(mid.decode('hex')) print s.hexdigest()
