Description

I am using this createHash package in my code. The problem is it works fine for the algorithms i.e. 'md5', 'rmd160' and 'ripemd160' however for the sha algorithms, I am getting the error:

const hash = createHash('sha256')
.update(entropyBuffer)
.digest();

Research direction

Start with browser.js at createHash and new Hash, then inspect index.js at the Hash.CipherBase failure. Reproduce the provided sha256 example and compare it with the working md5, rmd160, and ripemd160 algorithms. Done means SHA algorithms no longer throw this TypeError for the shown usage.
