decode md5 python

You cannot decode an md5 hash, as hashing is a process that is best thought of as one-way encoding
(that is to say what is hashed cannot be de-hashed; one can only determine what was hashed, either 
by examining a list of known hashes, or by hashing a set of inputs and matching the resulting hashes
with the hash you are trying to "decode").

Quoting Wikipedia, the key features of such a hashing algorithm are:

"
it is infeasible to find a message that has a given hash,

it is infeasible to modify a message without changing its hash,

it is infeasible to find two different messages with the same hash.
