Xavion Mirchandani, 11, Singapore | Advanced Computer Scientists Project Showcase | ICS 2022
Xavion Mirchandani, 11, presents his Python coding project ‘EncryptionX’ for Coding Lab’s International Coding Showcase 2022.
"Encryption X is a simple multifunctional encryption software that doubles as a text software. It encrypts by first reversing the text provided, then putting 3 random characters every two characters, and lastly ASCII shifts to a key that is randomly generated or manually put in depending on whether you are using key-mode or auto-mode. The encryption software supports opening files that use UTF-8 encoding. It supports .txt, .rtf, and file types like this. It can also save into these file types." - Xavion Mirchandani
