I'm having trouble pinpointing the origin of the initial hash values
for SHA 224 and, for that matter, 128. These values are defined as hex
representations of cube roots of primes for sha-1 of lengths 256, 384
and 512, but I can't find where they were obtained for the shorter
lengths.
Thanks and apologies if this is something well known.
