Thanks for the comments.

Yes it does.

The man page (the one online from OpenSSL project - SHA256.html)
gives a description using SHA1() which computes a message digest.
Being generally new to OpenSSL at that level, what is then the
difference between using, say, SHA1() vs. using SHA1_Init,
SHA1_Update and SHA1_Final ?  Is it only that the latter allows
for continuously add data until _Final is called ?
