### What is a collision in a hash function?
The correct answer is:
• **2 inputs map to the same output.**
A collision occurs in a hash function when two different inputs produce the same hash output.

### What do most attacks on hash functions involve?
The correct answer is:
• **A and B.**
Most attacks on hash functions typically focus on finding collisions (A) and may also involve pre-generating millions of hashes to compare them to the plaintext that generates it (B). Random guessing (C) alone is less effective given the nature of hash functions.
