I'm trying to create permutations of the Word "password", I have managed to create all permutations of the word with the code below. Currently this does Upper cases and lower cases. I need to Include permutations that have special characters for example where I will have "p@ssword". Where I'm replacing "a" with "@" and "o" "0".
Any idea how I can expand my implementation?
public static void WritePermutations(string pwd)
{
pwd = pwd.ToLower();
var myDict = new Dictionary<int, string>();
int Count = 0;
var results =
from e in Enumerable.Range(0, 1 << pwd.Length)
let p =
from b in Enumerable.Range(0, pwd.Length)
select (e & (1 << b)) == 0 ? (char?)null : pwd[b]
select string.Join(string.Empty, p);
foreach (string s in results)
{
string newValue = pwd;
s.ToLower();
foreach (char c in s)
{
var Old = c.ToString().ToLower();
var New = c.ToString().ToUpper();
newValue = ReplaceFirstOccurrence(newValue, Old, New);
Count++;
}
myDict.Add(Count, newValue);
}
foreach (var cred in myDict)
{
Console.WriteLine(cred.Value);
}
}
public static string ReplaceFirstOccurrence(string Source, string Find, string Replace)
{
int Place = Source.IndexOf(Find);
string result = Source.Remove(Place, Find.Length).Insert(Place, Replace);
return result;
}
How about starting off with these declarations and functions:
List<HashSet<char>> _charCombinations = new List<HashSet<char>> {
new HashSet<char> {'a','@'},
new HashSet<char> {'o', '0'},
};
HashSet<char> GetAlternatives(char c)
{
var result = new HashSet<char>();
foreach (var hashSet in _charCombinations)
{
if (hashSet.Contains(c))
{
foreach (char c2 in hashSet)
result.Add(c2);
}
}
if (char.IsLetter(c))
{
result.Add((String.Empty + c).ToUpper()[0]);
result.Add((String.Empty + c).ToLower()[0]);
}
else if (false) // any other char.Is-based logic
{
}
result.Add(c);
return result;
}
IEnumerable<string> GetTransformations(string s, int start)
{
char c = s[start - 1];
foreach (var c2 in GetAlternatives(c))
{
if (start == s.Length)
yield return String.Empty + c2;
else
{
var e = GetTransformations(s, start + 1).GetEnumerator();
while (e.MoveNext())
yield return c2 + e.Current;
}
}
}
You can then use them like this:
var e = GetTransformations("password", 1).GetEnumerator();
var result = new List<string>();
while (e.MoveNext())
result.Add(e.Current);
result.Sort((a,b) => string.CompareOrdinal(a, b));
This produces 576 strings (too long to list here), which is exactly what you'd expect for an 8-letter word where 6 of the chars have 2 possibilities, and the other 2 have 3 possibilities, ie 2x2x2x2x2x2x3x3
