What does hexdigest do in Python?

from hashlib import sha256
Hash = sha256(b"hello").hexdigest()

shake.digest(length)
Return the digest of the data passed to the update() method so far. This is a bytes object of size length which may contain bytes in the whole range from 0 to 255.

shake.hexdigest(length)
Like digest() except the digest is returned as a string object of double length, containing only hexadecimal digits. This may be used to exchange the value safely in email or other non-binary environments.
