Vernam encryption method for files - JohnCTX - Sep-18-2019
I have the following code snippet:
import secrets
def VernamCipherFunction(text, key):
result = "";
ptr = 0;
for char in text:
result = result + chr(ord(char) ^ ord(key[ptr]));
ptr = ptr + 1;
if ptr == len(key):
ptr = 0;
return result

otp = ''
for i in range(55):
otp += secrets.choice(encryption_key)
while True:
input_text = input("\nEnter File To Encrypt:\t");
fh=open(input_text, "w")
for encryption in fh:
fh.writelines=encryption
encryption=VernamCipherFunction(input_text, encryption_key)
print("\nFile is encrypted");
fh.close()
break
exit
The program runs okay, but during runtime the whole file was truncated when users tried to input filename. Any suggestions from any users will be appreciated.
RE: Vernam encryption method for files - JohnCTX - Sep-18-2019
Its purpose of the program is to prevent users from obfuscating any app developer's source code.
However, its only obstacle that's preventing me from successfully encrypting a selected file was not to
truncate it; it was supposed encrypt it instead using the file handling techniques using the
write lines method of the file writing object.
