Missing information

Description

Needs to specify units for output length. I'm assuming bits? Is that correct?

Needs to specify units for output length. I'm assuming bits? Is that correct?

It's the number of elements to return in the byte[]. If outputLength is 2, it returns an array of 2 bytes. So, it's in bytes, not bits.
