sha384sum: Calculate the SHA384 checksum for one or more files.
$ sha384sum ${filename1 filename2 ---}
try on your machine

The command "sha384sum" is used to calculate the SHA-384 hash value of files. The SHA-384 algorithm is a cryptographic hash function that generates a unique 384-bit hash value for a given input.

In the provided command, ${filename1 filename2 ---} represents a placeholder for the input files' names. You need to replace ${filename1 filename2 ---} with the actual names of the files you want to calculate the SHA-384 hash for.

For example, if you have two files called "file1.txt" and "file2.txt," the command would be:

sha384sum file1.txt file2.txt

The command will then execute and display the SHA-384 hash value for each file on the terminal.
