Link | by ZZ on 2008-09-19 23:32:28 (edited 2008-09-19 23:38:22)
Hello
I'm still new in programming and I have a several question about encryption and Decryption using vb.net.
Can anybody please tell me how to make an encryption and decryption in visual basic.net?
the way it work is : I write something on the textbox and when I push the encrypt button, the result of encryption will come out from the other textbox.
The same thing also for Decryption.
can I know where to find vb.net tutorial? and what kind of programming language that is for making a most basic game?

I can't tell you some exact codes because I don't want to tell those either. But, I can give hints for you on how make those things.

Cryptography can be made in any compilers (Java, VisualBasic, C, PHP or HTML for Web Developers, etc) but the differences is the syntax and the process on how to hide the data and what data can be hide.

The first thing to study is not the syntax in VisualBasic.net, but the methodology of Cipher. Try to scan what is Cipher, how to use cipher, and how to build your own style of cipher.

The second is try to review your Math and Logic Subjects. Cipher is develop using those subject. If you have time, try to study also "factoring and inverse factoring" or some calculus and inverse calculus principle.

The third is the coding and syntax in your compiler (example VisualBasic.net that you decide to use). But, as you say you're only new to programming, so try to learn only part of usable codes and syntax for "text manipulation" and looping like the following codes for VB.NET...

Len
Mid
Loop
For next
Do While or Do Until

Those codes for VB.NET is only basic for text manipulation, but there are many other syntax that you can discover while making your project.

If you want a sample program (not the code) of a simple encryption and decryption method, click here to download my MACES. Install first WinRAR in order to extract it to your computer. Then right-click the link and then choose "Save Target As" and then save it to a *.RAR file. After that extract it to your PC and you're free to go!

The fourth and the advance thing to learn about encryption is to study Hex Programming using HexEditor. This is a low-level programming in manipulating some digital data like documents, pictures, musics, softwares, and every data that is inside the computer. The main use of cryptography is to secure all of your personal and private data to the public. That's why is it very useful and in demand knowledge but very hard to find because of secret information about it. You can encrypt your pictures into random pixel colors, hide your files and encrypt them in files that the PC doesn't understand until you decrypt it, encrypt your MP3 music in an audio format that plays unusual sounds that will irritate the listeners and the solution to turn it back to original is to decrypt it, and etc.

There is a lot of things to learn and I consider my self a beginner in this topic with this knowledge. In methaphoric form in my knowledge about cryptography, I read only the cover of it's data not the whole of its book.

Edited: I change the Link of the file because my Webhoster delete my RAR file after an hour. So the link above is new.

To answer your question on programming languages to make games, all programming languages can make games, its only a matter of how well are you versed in each language.

VB works fine. The first game I made was with VB.

There are also applications to make games such as Game Maker. Its a pretty good tool to make 2D games.
