the SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) takes a password and generates hash in the database as the data for the password. The password itself is not stored, instead the entered password is converted into a hash and then compared with the hash that corresponds to the username. Since the SHA algorithm is designed to be a one way function, there would be no way to compute the password from the hash alone.

UPDATE 10/12/2017 - changed slightly changed algorithm to account for the function ignoring slight changes. Password maximum input length shortened from 37 digits to 18 digits.
