Hash generators typically produce fixed-length outputs (hashes) that are represented as strings of alphanumeric characters, which can include:

1. **Hexadecimal Characters**: Most common hash functions (like MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256) produce a hash that is represented in hexadecimal format (0-9 and a-f).

2. **Base64 Encoding**: Some hash functions may produce output encoded in Base64, which includes uppercase letters (A-Z), lowercase letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), and special characters (+, /, =).

3. **Binary Outputs**: The raw hash output may also be represented in binary, where it consists of 0s and 1s.

4. **Custom Formats**: Some applications may generate hashes using custom encoding schemes or representations, which can include various character sets.

Essentially, the type of characters produced by a hash generator depends on the specific algorithm and the format it uses to represent the hash.
