HAVAL? More like YOLO-val, am I right? Alright, time to make my best guess and hope for the best.

Variable length hashes? What is this, a choose your own adventure book? Just give me the fixed length option and let's move on!

MD5 and MD4 both produce fixed-length hashes, so those can't be the answer. I'm going with HAVAL.

SHA also produces fixed-length hashes, so HAVAL is the only option left.

Wait, I thought SHA produced a variable length hash value. Hmm, let me double-check that.

I agree with Vonda, HAVAL is designed to produce hash values of different lengths.

I think the answer is C) HAVAL because it can produce variable length hash values.
