XOR Block Chiper Calculator

XOR Block Chiper Calculator is a feather-light application developed in Java, which puts a user-friendly interface at your disposal for performing the XOR (Exclusive disjunction) operation on two specified strings of characters, expressed in hexadecimal format. It supports data values with up to 256 bits (64 hex digits).XOR is a logical operation that delivers a true result only when both input values are different, which means that one must be true and the other false.

Straightforward interface and options

The GUI consists of a small window that reveals the handful of options provided by the utility. You can type or paste the two strings of characters in hex format in the two dedicated boxes, make corrections if necessary, as well as click a button to calculate the XOR result, along with the hamming weight.There are no options implemented for printing information or exporting it to file. However, you can select the XOR result and copy it to the Clipboard by opening the right-click menu or by triggering the global keyboard shortcut.

No setup required, besides Java

The entire program's packed in a single executable .jar file that can be dropped in a custom directory on the disk or copied to a USB flash drive, in order to easily run XOR Block Chiper Calculator on any machine.Just remember that you must have Java installed, otherwise it won't launch. It doesn't modify your system registry configuration or create files on the disk without asking for your permission.

Evaluation and conclusion

XOR results were instantly calculated and displayed in our tests, a task during which the tool remained minimal on system resources usage, thanks to the fact that it needed low CPU and RAM to work properly.Although it doesn't come packed with richer options and customization settings, XOR Block Chiper Calculator offers a simple solution for calculating the XOR value of any two input entries.
