- I am looking for a C programmer who is willing to implement FEAL and N-Hash.
- FEAL is a block algorithm from Japan; N-Hash is a one-way hash function from
- the same place. Eli Biham and Adi Shamir made mincemeat out of them with
- differential cryptanalysis, but they still have some interest.
-
- Anyway, I have paper copies of C source code that claims to implement the
- algorithms (a few pages; not very long). I am looking for someone who is
- willing to get them working, and then let me publish the source code in my
- book.
-
- This looks like a pretty simple operation for an experienced C programmer.
- Any takers?
