As an aside, I coded a Keccak implementation in JavaScript if anyone is interested. It was a great learning experience, and I've tried to comment the code thoroughly. https://github.com/jeffallen6767/keccak-p-js/blob/master/src... Previous to this I did sha256, and I have to say that the Keccak algorithm was a bit easier to reason about ( as to what it was doing at the bit level, and why )...at least it was for me. https://github.com/jeffallen6767/sha-256-js/blob/master/src/...

I've been learning as much as I can about blockchain, crypto, etc... I've recently written sha256 and keccak in Javascript ( so as to learn how they work at a detailed level ). https://github.com/jeffallen6767/sha-256-js and https://github.com/jeffallen6767/keccak-p-js
