Python

Python

Python is a very high-level 'scripting' language that has many third-party modules available for extending its functionality. The language is therefore suitable for prototyping software applications and for teaching programming concepts.

Python Functions

Example files to introduce the concept of using functions within Python scripts, leading up to an example of creating a Python module.

Python Login Screen

Uses a text file for storing password hashes, and the PythonCard library for rendering the interface.

SQLite

Using SQLite as an application database for storing user login details. Password hashes are stored in the database, retrieved and compared against hash digests of user input.

Python RPC

This directory includes just a client script. To use, download the RPyC module package and run the server script rpyc_classic.py to provide the server.

PyCrypto

Using the PyCrypto module for demonstrating 3DES and AES encryption.

PythonCard Examples

Some scripts to get you started with the PythonCard library.

SmartCard RNG

This script uses he Smart Card module to read from a Smart Card microprocessor's PRNG.
