Is bcrypt a hashing algorithm

0 votes
I’ve been learning about various cryptographic techniques, and I keep encountering the term bcrypt, often in relation to password storage. However, I’m not entirely clear on whether bcrypt is considered a hashing algorithm or if it’s something else. Can someone clarify this for me? How does it differ from other hashing algorithms like SHA-256?
