$newdata .= pack("C",hexdec(substr($string,$i,2)));
}
return $newdata;
}
?>
Return value: String
Function type: Data processing

d - x-cp866
m - x-mac-cyrillic
Syntax: string crypt(string str, string [salt]);
Return value: String
Function type: Encoding processing
Content description: This function encrypts a string using the UNIX standard encryption DES module. This is a one-way encryption function and cannot be decrypted. To compare strings, place the first two characters of the encrypted string in the salt parameter, and then compare the encrypted strings.
For more detailed information, please refer to crypt in UNIX Manual (man).
In some newer UNIX versions, in addition to DES, other encryption modules are also provided, such as MD5. Some systems even use MD5 instead of DES. There are some changes in the salt parameter, depending on the length of the string passed to the salt parameter:
CRYPT_STD_DES - Standard DES encoding, enter a 2-character salt.
CRYPT_EXT_DES - Extended DES encoding, enter a 9-character salt.
CRYPT_MD5 - MD5 encoding, enter 12 characters plus $1$ salt.
CRYPT_BLOWFISH - Extended DES encoding, input 16 characters plus $2$ salt.
In addition, if the salt parameter is not used, the program will be generated automatically.
Return value: None
Function type: PHP system function
Content description: This function outputs a string. Since it's not a real function, it has no return value.
Usage examples
echo "Hello World";
