    This Java program demonstrates the Vernam cipher by encrypting and decrypting a short text string ("hello") using a simple XOR cipher. It converts the plaintext and cipher key to character arrays, then performs an XOR operation on each character pair to encrypt the text. It then decrypts the encrypted output back to the original plaintext by running another XOR cipher operation with the same key.

    VERNAM CIPHER

    import java.lang.Math;

    public class xor { public static void main(String args[]) { // This would be the text we encrypt (in this case "hello") // We convert it to a character array String text = new String("hello"); char[] arText = text.toCharArray();

    // This would be our vernam cipher (should be same length as our text) // Here we use the same letters, but theoretically should be random // characters generated on the fly. USE RANDOM LETTERS! String cipher = new String("XYZHG"); char[] arCipher = cipher.toCharArray();

    // Array to hold our encryption (again same length) char[] encoded = new char[5];

    // Encrypt the text by using XOR (exclusive OR) each character // of our text against cipher. System.out.println("Encoded " + text + " to be... "); for (int i = 0; i < arText.length; i++) { encoded[i] = (char) (arText[i] ^ arCipher[i]); System.out.print(encoded[i]); }

    System.out.println("\nDecoded to be... ");

    // Run through the encrypted text and against the cipher again // This decrypts the text. for (int i = 0; i < encoded.length; i++) { char temp = (char) (encoded[i] ^ arCipher[i]); System.out.print(temp); } } } Output:
