The implementation is entirely Object Oriented, as there is +quite a lot of context inherent in making blowfish as fast as it is. The key is +anywhere between 64 and 448 bits (8 and 56 bytes), and should be passed as a +packed string. The transformation itself is a 16-round Feistel Network, and +operates on a 64 bit block. |
