You have stack buffer out of bounds write. On line 52 you declare h an array of 70 unsigned ints. On line 57 you store reference to such array. Later, on line 35 you write out of bounds, one element past end of the array. The _SPR_history[i] writes to _SPR_history[70]. Created an issue: https://github.com/X64X2/sh/issues/1

Doesn’t depend on programming language but something with visual debugger. You know that stuff when you can see current line of your source code highlighted, press a key to step into, step over and so on. You can see values inside your variables. You can also change your variables mid-run right form the debugger.

Because you spend 20% of your time writing bugs and the other 80% debugging them. At least make it pleasant experience (no printf-style debugging).

Back in the day I was using Turbo Pascal, Delphi, Visual Basic, C#, Java, PHP with Zend, Java Script, today I’m using Visual C++.

Yes, I know this. It took me long time to figure this out. My entire life I focused on technical skills / programming / math / logic. As I deemed them most important for the job. I was like: “Hey, if you cannot program, why do you work as programmer (you stupido)?” Only few years ago I realized that even as programmer (as opposed to sales man) you really need those “meh” soft skills. And that they are really important and I should not call them “meh”. I’m very good at solving problems, improving product’s performance, memory consumption, discovering and fixings bugs, security vulnerabilities. But I’m very very bad at communicating my skills and communicating with people in general. I’m not able to politely tell people that theirs idea is bad, I just say “that’s stupid”. And I’m mostly/sometimes right (if I’m not 100% sure, I don’t say anything), but the damage caused by the way I say it is often inreversible. That post of mine about the job interview and CV was half joke and half reality. I just freeze/stutter when I’m asked something that is obvious because it is written I my CV. I’m immediately thinking “Did he not received the CV?” or “Did he not read it?” “Why the fuck is he not prepared for the call? Why are we wasting time asking me what should be obvious because I sent it in advance?” I’m more robot than human. Put me in front of problem and forget to tell me that it is impossible to solve … and I will solve it. But easy small talk … disaster. Communicating what the problem really was … disaster. Communicating how I solved it … disaster. “It was not working before and now it works fine, what the hell do you want from me now?” Yes, I’m very bad in team, in collective. I didn’t know the reason why, but since few years ago I know the root of the problem. It’s not that everybody around me is stupid and don’t know basic stuff (what I consider basic), but me unable to communicate with other humans.

The interview starts … the interviewer asks me “Tell me about yourself.” … I respond “Did you receive my CV? I put all important details about me … right there. What questions do you have about my past jobs?” The interviewer encourages me again to tell him about myself, my past projects, etc. … Me: Awkward silence. … Me to myself: Dafuq? Should I read the CV from top to bottom OR WHAT?

Yes, but (there is always a but) it does not apply if you implement off-line encryption. Meaning no on-line service encrypting / decrypting attacker provided data (such as SSL / TLS / HTTPS). Meaning if you are running the cipher on your own computer with your own keys / plaintexts / ciphertexts. There is nobody to snoop time differences or power usage differences when using different key / different ciphertext. Then I would suggest this is fine. The only one who can attack you is yourself. In fact, I implemented AES from scratch in C89 language, this source code is at the same time compatible with C++14 constexpr evaluation mode. I also implemented the Serpent cipher, Serpent was an AES candidate back then when there were no AES and Rijndael was not AES yet. The code is on my GitHub page.
