Recently, I need to write a small test program using VB, so I turned over the abandoned VB for a long time and installed a green version of 10 MB from the Internet. The RC4 algorithm is needed for testing in the code, so I searched the internet and the result was very disappointing. I could hardly use the code that was spread around the network, the algorithm should be correct, but the string is used as the function parameter, and the result is processed incorrectly. This error is still being spread everywhere. It's a huge copy of the article. No one has to make a simple test if there are so many posts? As a result, a program was simply written according to the C code, using a byte array to pass parameters. During the call, strconv can be used to convert the string and byte arrays, or it is no problem to use string directly without any trouble.
