A few others and I are attempting to convert the XWISP APGAR Cipher into C#/Vb.Net, we are very close but are stuck.

We need to Convert this:
Perl:
sub apgar_enc {
  my @v = map ord, split //, shift;
  my @r;
  my $U="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789./";
  for (my $i = 0; $i < 8; $i++) {
    my $a = $v[$i];
    my $index=(($a & 1
                ? $a << ($a & 1) & $v[8-$i]
                : $a ^ $v[8-$i])
                & 0x3f);
    push @r, substr($U,$index,1)
  }
  join '', @r;
}


Into VB.Net or C#.

I have attempted both, resulting on a circle of problems.

My VB.Net Tries:

#1
"CODE"


#2

"CODE"


#3
"CODE"






C# - By Aca20031
"CODE"


C# Mixed mine and Aca's
#1
"CODE"


#2
"CODE"


#3
"CODE"


#4
"CODE"


Dave's C# Code:

"CODE"


small rainbow table of values:

Pass entered | APGAR | What Aca's (#1) code does
aaaaaaaa aaaaaaaa abbbbbbb
aaaaaaa1 aaaaaaaG abbbbbbH
zzzzzzzz 6aaaaaaa 6aaaaaaa
password WaIMMsbf WaINNtbf
AbCdEfGh akgcacck akhcbcdk
99999999 aWWWWWWW aXXXXXXX
chicken1 azcecchG azcfddhG



We would really appreciate if Blazer, DanPaul, or anyone could help.

I think this will work in VB:

    Private Function apgar(ByVal pass As String) As String
        If pass.Length = 8 Then
            Dim v(7)
            Dim j As Integer
            For j = 0 To 7
                v(j) = pass.Substring(j, 1)
            Next

            Dim r As String = "" '  my @r;

            Dim U As String = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789./"
            Dim i As Integer
            For i = 0 To 7
                Dim t1 as integer
                If i = 0 Then
                  t1 = 0
                Else
                  t1 = Asc(v(8 - i))
                End If
                Dim a As String = v(i)
                Dim temp As Long
                If (Asc(a) And 1) Then
                    temp = (Asc(a) << 1) And t1
                Else
                    temp = Asc(a) Xor t1
                End If
                Dim index As Integer = (temp And 63)
                r &= U.Substring(index, 1) 'push @r, substr($U,$index,1)
            Next

            Return r
        End If
    End Function


First you missed the ./ off the end of the string U. It needs to be 64 characters long.

Second, the "7 - i" should have read "8 - i" like in the original Perl.

Third, the "8-$i" in the original Perl points to the null terminator when $i is zero (for a string s that is 8 characters long, s[8] returns the null terminator). So Asc(8-i) when i = 0 needs to return 0, as in my revised version.

Fourth, a small optimisation: since we only ever get to this line

temp = Asc(a) << (Asc(a) And 1) And Asc(v(7 - i))

if Asc(a) And 1 = 1, I replaced the former by the latter.

I tested it on some of the strings in your table and it looks to be working.

Hope that helps Wink

thought that was some sort of Perl escape thingy.

ya I was wondering why there was an 8. (this is why im not coding my stuff in perl :S)

beautiful! I think I tried that at some point (i didnt paste all 600 attempts :S) but I screwed up on other areas.
