I'm trying to write an interface to check SHA1 or SHA256 checksums of a file.
Initially I was thinking of opening the checksum file and figuring out based on the contents of that file, is it a SHA1 checksum or a SHA256 checksum. I realize it would be 'easier' to pass as an argument to the script which type of checksum we're trying to check. My question is, which is the better way? - Let the script figure it out or pass it as an argument on the command line? - And why is it better?
