The following diagram shows the relationship between keys and addresses:
![Passphrase → Secret Key → Public Key + Type Prefix → Account ID + Checksum → Address](img/key-address-rels.png)
![Passphrase → Seed → Private Key → Public Key + Type Prefix → Account ID + Checksum → Address](img/key-address-rels.png)
The formula for calculating an XRP Ledger address is as follows. For the complete example code, see [`encode_address.js`](https://github.com/ripple/ripple-dev-portal/blob/master/content/_code-samples/address_encoding/encode_address.js).
The formula for calculating an XRP Ledger address from a public key is as follows. For the complete example code, see [`encode_address.js`](https://github.com/ripple/ripple-dev-portal/blob/master/content/_code-samples/address_encoding/encode_address.js). For the process of deriving a public key from a passphrase or seed value, see [Key Derivation](cryptographic-keys.html#key-derivation).
1. Import required algorithms: SHA-256, RIPEMD160, and base58. Set the dictionary for base58.
