Introduction

Implementations of the EVM block instructions.

block_hash

Push the hash of one of the 256 most recent complete blocks onto the stack. The block number to hash is present at the top of the stack.

Parameters

evm : The current EVM frame.

Raises

:py:class:~ethereum.paris.vm.exceptions.StackUnderflowError If len(stack) is less than 1. :py:class:~ethereum.paris.vm.exceptions.OutOfGasError If evm.gas_left is less than 20.
