XOR Encryption

XOR Encryption is a little Python library for encrypt and decrypt string with key. This library is for those of you who are learning encryption using the XOR method.

How it Works

The library uses a simple encryption algorithm that converts plain text and keys to binary form and then XORs them both to generate cipher text. Here's the mathematical notation:

Because performing XOR operations with the same value twice in a row yields the original value, the following is the mathematical notation for decryption:

Note:

• P = Plain text
• K = Key
• C = Cipher text

How to Use

Example code:

from xorencryption import XOREncryption

plain = "this is your plain text"
key = "boom"
enc = XOREncryption()

enc.set_plaintext(plaintext=plain)
enc.set_key(key=key)

print(enc.encrypt())  # return cipher text
print(enc.decrypt())  # return decrypted text
