# Method Crypto.crypt_md5()

Method crypt_md5

  `string crypt_md5(string pw, void|string salt)`

Description

  From Pike 7.5 pw and salt are binary strings, so the result is different if any of these includes `"\0"`.

  The return type is also changed from string to int|string. If the second argument is a hash, pw will be hashed with the salt from the hash and compared with the hash.
