( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Why are you posting this? It won't run. It's poorly structured and it demonstrates that you don't understand some basics about Perl. Ordinarily, I would not be so harsh, but you've been here before and ignored advice from some people you should definitely be paying attention to (merlyn, tilly and others).

Here are a few comments for you:

  • You wrote, in response to those who claim that breaking your system should be trivial:
    At present the world is working on it, largely because of the most disturbing way it has been implemented.

    Yup. Saw it on CNN last night. HEADLINE: "NSA works furiously to break Steeeeeve's encryption algorithm."

    Please, credit us with some intelligence. If you want us to believe that the "world is working on it", provide some evidence.

  • This ain't Perl:
    For $x = 1 To length($self->{R_KEY})

    If you are going to lie to us, at least be a bit more clever about it. Your program won't run.

    HEADLINE 2: "NSA stops work on Steeeeeve's encryption algorithm after determining that it won't run."

  • If you are so good at crypto, could you give us some credentials? Heck, at least provide us with some mathematical evidence that suggests your routine is worth something.
  • As tilly has pointed out more than once, prototypes will not work on method calls. Prototypes are checked at compile time. The actual subroutine called by a method call is not determined until run time - too late for the prototype.

I am usually known for being a nice guy. However, I don't appreciate what appears to be someone lying (that someone is you, if it's not perfectly clear), nor do I particularly care for someone who completely fails to learn from his or her mistakes.

Cheers,
Ovid

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
