| :deprecated: | |
| .. deprecated-removed:: 3.11 3.13 | |
| This module is no longer part of the Python standard library. | |
| It was :ref:`removed in Python 3.13 <whatsnew313-pep594>` after | |
| being deprecated in Python 3.11. The removal was decided in :pep:`594`. | |
| Applications can use the :mod:`hashlib` module from the standard library. | |
| Other possible replacements are third-party libraries from PyPI: | |
| :pypi:`legacycrypt`, :pypi:`bcrypt`, or :pypi:`argon2-cffi`. | |
| These are not supported or maintained by the Python core team. | |
| The last version of Python that provided the :mod:`!crypt` module was | |
| `Python 3.12 <https://docs.python.org/3.12/library/crypt.html>`_. |
