Simple hash-mining c library and its python binding.

## Requirements

- `cmake` and things to build
- non-old CPU for AVX2 instructions
- Check `flags` sections of your `/proc/cpuinfo`.
- OpenMP (optional)

## How to Install

``` sh
$ pip install proofofwork
```

## How to Use

``` python
>>> import proofofwork
>>> import hashlib

>>> s = proofofwork.md5('00000000')
>>> s
b'erno8AAA'
>>> hashlib.md5(s).hexdigest()
'0000000057c4ca67d38e6826053824bd'

>>> s = proofofwork.sha1('000??????????????????????????????????000', text=b'sha1{????????}', alphabet=bytes(range(128, 256)))
>>> s
b'sha1{\xcb\xf0\xa4\x80\x80\x80\x80\xe0}'
>>> hashlib.sha1(s).hexdigest()
'00099d6917591c54f861032fd0d0071fbc647000'
```
