asked on

code/array is visible to user & icon

Hi, I opened up my c program in notepad and found that I could see some text that I don't want the user to see.  It's text in one of my arrays.  Is there a way to make my whole code invisible to the user?

My other question is, how do I create my own icon and use it for my c programs?  Don't like the default icon.

Thanks.

There are many cryptographic techniques but simplest one is the Caesar algorithm. So you just have to "shift" alphabet, so A=D, B=E, C=F, etc.
Replace you strings with transposed alphabet and before using array into your program, run the decyphering algorithm over the array.
To create an Icon, just use an Icon Editor, there are many at www.download.com

Hi jaime, I actually did read something about this.  So just assign the letter (variable in this case) to another letter?  How would I do this without overlapping each other?  Any program that will make this process more easier?

I know how to create the icon, I want to know how to associate it with my c program.  I don't like the default exe icon.

Thanks stuart for the icon link.  I will take a look at that.

Still having trouble with the cypering though.

I have a dynamic array:

char myarr * []={......
....
};

How do I do this then?

I will close this question now since there seems to be no more replies now.

Having a problem with both the icon setting (can't figure out how to link an icon to the program and also can't get the cyphering code to work.  I will close it anyway and split 25 pts for both.

Thanks.
