/*
 * Example of using an extendable-output hash function (XOF). A XOF is a hash
 * function with configurable output length and which can generate an
 * arbitrarily large output.
 *
 * This example uses SHAKE256, an extendable output variant of SHA3 (Keccak).
 *
 * To generate different output lengths, you can pass a single integer argument
 * on the command line, which is the output size in bytes. By default, a 20-byte
 * output is generated and (for this length only) a known answer test is
 * performed.
