Specification of the program
to be written:
stdin --> DES [-d] key
--> stdout
Where:
- DES is to be written in C
or Java.
- Input is to be treated as
a stream of bytes,
- -d is to mean decryption.
- Both providing the key in
hexadecimal and binary format must be possible.
- Output is to be produced
as a stream of bytes.
- It is to be properly dealt
with if there is no complete block of 64 bits at the end of the input stream.
- Proper diagnostic output
in case of usage errors is to be provided.
You will have to initialize
some tables.
Here
is an ASCII file that contains these tables.
You can copy the numerical values
and paste them into your program text.
Work should be done in pairs.
