    - #### check

          public static void check(java.io.File dest,
                   java.io.File checksumFile,
                   java.lang.String algorithm)
                            throws java.io.IOException

      Checks the checksum of the given file against the given checksumFile, and throws an IOException if the checksum is not compliant
      Parameters:
        `dest` - the file to test
        `checksumFile` - the file containing the expected checksum
        `algorithm` - the checksum algorithm to use
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException` - if an IO problem occur whle reading files or if the checksum is not compliant

    - #### computeAsString

          public static java.lang.String computeAsString(java.io.File f,
                                         java.lang.String algorithm)
                                                  throws java.io.IOException

      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException`

    - #### isKnownAlgorithm

          public static boolean isKnownAlgorithm(java.lang.String algorithm)

    - #### byteArrayToHexString

          public static java.lang.String byteArrayToHexString(byte[] in)

      Convert a byte[] array to readable string format. This makes the "hex" readable!
      Parameters:
        `in` - byte[] buffer to convert to string format
      Returns:
        result String buffer in String format
