How do I run through every possible permutation to eventually solve for the randomly generated password? This is in Kotlin.
I think you should append all the lists together and then draw from it by random index, this way you ensure that position of numbers, lower cases and uppercases is random too. Also you don't need to write all the characters, you can use Range which generates them for you.
fun main() {
val allChars = mutableListOf<Any>().apply {
addAll(0..9) // creates range from 0 to 9 and adds it to a list
addAll('a'..'z') // creates range from a to z and adds it to a list
addAll('A'..'Z') // creates range from A to Z and adds it to a list
}
val passwordLength = 9
val password = StringBuilder().apply {
for (i in 0 until passwordLength) {
val randomCharIndex =
Random.nextInt(allChars.lastIndex) // generate random index from 0 to lastIndex of list
val randomChar = allChars[randomCharIndex] // select character from list
append(randomChar) // append char to password string builder
}
}.toString()
println(password)
}
Even shorter solution can be achieved using list methods
fun main() {
val password = mutableListOf<Any>()
.apply {
addAll(0..9) // creates range from 0 to 9 and adds it to a list
addAll('a'..'z') // creates range from a to z and adds it to a list
addAll('A'..'Z') // creates range from A to Z and adds it to a list
}
.shuffled() // shuffle the list
.take(9) // take first 9 elements from list
.joinToString("") // join them to string
println(password)
}
As others pointed out there are less painful ways to generate the initial password in the format of: 1 to 3 digits followed by 3 lowercase characters followed by 3 uppercase characters.
To brute force this password, you will need to consider all 3-permutations of "a..z" and all 3-permitations of "A..Z". In both cases the number of such 3-permutations is 15600 = 26! / (26-3)!. In worst case you will have to examine 1000 * 15600 * 15600 combination, half of this on the average.
Probably doable in a few hours with the code below:
import kotlin.random.Random
import kotlin.system.exitProcess
val lowercaseList = ('a'..'z').toList()
val uppercaseList = ('A'..'Z').toList()
val lowercase = lowercaseList.joinToString(separator = "")
val uppercase = uppercaseList.joinToString(separator = "")
fun genPassword(): String {
val lowercase = lowercaseList.shuffled().take(3)
val uppercase = uppercaseList.shuffled().take(3)
return (listOf(Random.nextInt(0, 1000)) + lowercase + uppercase).joinToString(separator = "")
}
/**
* Generate all K-sized permutations of str of length N. The number of such permutations is:
* N! / (N-K)!
*
* For example: perm(2, "abc") = [ab, ac, ba, bc, ca, cb]
*/
fun perm(k: Int, str: String): List<String> {
val nk = str.length - k
fun perm(str: String, accumulate: String): List<String> {
return when (str.length == nk) {
true -> listOf(accumulate)
false -> {
str.flatMapIndexed { i, c ->
perm(str.removeRange(i, i + 1), accumulate + c)
}
}
}
}
return perm(str, "")
}
fun main() {
val password = genPassword().also { println(it) }
val all3LowercasePermutations = perm(3, lowercase).also { println(it) }.also { println(it.size) }
val all3UppercasePermutations = perm(3, uppercase).also { println(it) }.also { println(it.size) }
for (i in 0..999) {
println("trying $i")
for (l in all3LowercasePermutations) {
for (u in all3UppercasePermutations) {
if ("$i$l$u" == password) {
println("found: $i$l$u")
exitProcess(0)
}
}
}
}
}
I´m new to Kotlin so first I start with a Password Generator. I do use IntelliJIDea
fun main() {
var helper = Int
var counter = 0
val counterOfPwCha = 10
var pwString = ""
val opportunityArray = arrayOf('A','C','a','c','B','b','D','d','E','e','F','f','#','+','*','$','%','&','§','G','g','H','h','I','i','J','j','k','K','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9',
'l','L','M','m','N','n','O','o','P','p','Q','q','R','r','S','s','T','t','U','u','V','v','W','w','Y','y','X','x','Z','z','<','>','|','?','!',)
while (counter <= counterOfPwCha)
{
helper = (0..73).random()
pwString += opportunityArray[helper]
counter++
}
println(pwString)
}
it workes fine, but the output isn´t what I expected.
Example: +3�2L%II>J�
So it cant handle some of my Chars, I can debug it until I know what kind of Char he can´t handle with and delete them from the Array, but they are all some typical PW Chars, so my question is:
How can I let Kotlin know, how to Handle these ASCI2 chars?
Or is it because of the $?
Avoid hardcoded numbers like the "73" in your range, it's way too error prone!
If you still get funny characters, put in some println that shows each character's numeric value so that you can lookup it using "man ascii".
A more Kotlin-like code would be:
fun pwgen() {
val counterOfPwCha = 10
val charset = ('A'..'Z') + ('a'..'z') + ('0'..'9') + listOf('#', '+', '*', '$', '%', '&', '§', '<', '>', '|', '?', '!')
val pwString = (1..counterOfPwCha)
.map {
val randomArrayIndex = charset.indices.random()
charset[randomArrayIndex]
}
.onEach { c -> println("Character $c = " + c.toInt()) }
.joinToString("")
println(pwString)
}
fun main() {
var helper = Int
var counter = 0
val counterOfPwCha = 10
var pwString = ""
val opportunityArray = arrayOf('A','C','a','c','B','b','D','d','E','e','F','f','#','+','*','$','%','&','§','G','g','H','h','I','i','J','j','k','K','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9',
'l','L','M','m','N','n','O','o','P','p','Q','q','R','r','S','s','T','t','U','u','V','v','W','w','Y','y','X','x','Z','z','<','>','|','?','!',)
while (counter <= counterOfPwCha)
{
helper = (0..73).random()
pwString += opportunityArray[helper]
counter++
}
println(pwString)
}
Hi I am writing an app in kotlin and need to decompose a number into powers of 2.
I have already done this in c#, PHP and swift but kotlin works differently somehow.
having researched this I believe it is something to do with the numbers in my code going negative somewhere and that the solution lies in declaring one or more of the variable as "Long" to prevent this from happening but i have not been able to figure out how to do this.
here is my code:
var salads = StringBuilder()
var value = 127
var j=0
while (j < 256) {
var mask = 1 shl j
if(value != 0 && mask != 0) {
salads.append(mask)
salads.append(",")
}
j += 1
}
// salads = (salads.dropLast()) // removes the final ","
println("Salads = $salads")
This shoud output the following:
1,2,4,8,16,32,64
What I actually get is:
1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768,65536,131072,262144,524288,1048576,2097152,4194304,8388608,16777216,33554432,67108864,134217728,268435456,536870912,1073741824,-2147483648,1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768,65536,131072,262144,524288,1048576,2097152,4194304,8388608,16777216,33554432,67108864,134217728,268435456,536870912,1073741824,-2147483648,1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768,65536,131072,262144,524288,1048576,2097152,4194304,8388608,16777216,33554432,67108864,134217728,268435456,536870912,1073741824,-2147483648,1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768,65536,131072,262144,524288,1048576,2097152,4194304,8388608,16777216,33554432,67108864,134217728,268435456,536870912,1073741824,-2147483648,1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768,65536,131072,262144,524288,1048576,2097152,4194304,8388608,16777216,33554432,67108864,134217728,268435456,536870912,1073741824,-2147483648,1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768,65536,131072,262144,524288,1048576,2097152,4194304,8388608,16777216,33554432,67108864,134217728,268435456,536870912,1073741824,-2147483648,1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768,65536,131072,262144,524288,1048576,2097152,4194304,8388608,16777216,33554432,67108864,134217728,268435456,536870912,1073741824,-2147483648,1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768,65536,131072,262144,524288,1048576,2097152,4194304,8388608,16777216,33554432,67108864,134217728,268435456,536870912,1073741824,-2147483648,
Any ideas?
This works for the one input that you specified, at the very least:
fun powersOfTwo(value :Long): String {
val result = ArrayList<String>()
var i = 0
var lastMask = 0
while (lastMask < value) {
val mask = 1 shl i
if (value != 0.toLong() && mask < value) {
result.add(mask.toString())
}
lastMask = mask
i += 1
}
return result.joinToString(",")
}
Ran it in a unit test:
#Test
fun addition_isCorrect() {
val result = powersOfTwo(127)
assertEquals("1,2,4,8,16,32,64", result)
}
Test passed.
You can get a list of all powers of two that fit in Int and test each of them for whether the value contains it with the infix function and:
val value = 126
val powersOfTwo = (0 until Int.SIZE_BITS).map { n -> 1 shl n }
println(powersOfTwo.filter { p -> value and p != 0}.joinToString(","))
// prints: 2,4,8,16,32,64

Hi I finally managed to get this working properly:
fun decomposeByTwo(value :Int): String {
val result = ArrayList<String>()
var value = value
var j = 0
while (j < 256) {
var mask = 1 shl j
if ((value and mask) != 0) {
value -= mask
result.add(mask.toString())
}
j += 1
}
return result.toString()
}
I hope this helps someone trying to get a handle on bitwise options!
Somehow you want to do the "bitwise AND" of "value" and "mask" to determine if the j-th bit of "value" is set. I think you just forgot that test in your kotlin implementation.
