Functions included:
def hash_file(filename: str) -> str:
"""
Hash the contents of the file specified
Arguments:
- filename: str - File to hash
Returns: str - SHA256 hexadecimal representation of hash of the file
"""
...

"""
Get the stored SHA256 hash of the file specified in the sha_file
Arguments:
- file_to_hash: str - File to get the hash of
- sha_file: str - File containing SHA256 hashes
Returns: str - SHA256 hash of the file
"""
...
def check_hashes_against_file(hash_list_filename: str) -> int:
"""
Open the file specified and check all files in the file against re-calculated SHA256 hashes, returns the number of mismatched hashes

- hash_list_filename: str - File containing SHA256 hashes
Returns: int - Number of mismatched hashes
"""
...
def regenerate_hashes(path: str, out_file: str) -> None:
"""
Regenerate SHA256 hashes recursively for all files in the directory specified, writing the results to the specified file
