A hash is the output of a hash function, a function which is a mathematically reproducible but irreversible process that takes in an arbitrary length input and produces a fixed length output. The same input will always result in the same output. Hashing is central to Bitcoin mining as well as the generation of Bitcoin addresses.

Finding Hash with 11 leading zeroes

For an exercise, I'm trying to find a sha256 hash with 11 leading zeroes. For this reason, I wrote a Python script that basically tries all intergers from 1 to N and brute forces the hash. … Am I mistaken or is there a problem with my code as there must be a nonce somewhere between 1 and 16^11 where the hash has 11 leading zeroes? Thank you for your input! …
