    create a schedule for 50 teachers

    How to Implement Password to Harsh form

    @Moore: there is a problem with your method. You are XORing an integer with a long. Wonder what's the result. I propose that you convert the result of Asc to byte then XOR it with a byte Salt. Note that your method is very easy to break.
