Houp, hep, was a long time i go, didn't saw it, thx :)
But, i will publish this code in a new thread to make it better and faster :)
Of course, i will mention its creator ;) (malo1992)

Will have to look through the code. But seems people are finding it interesting.

My personal opinion is to never use boost. I hate it.
On the other hand, I have never used any libs that dont come with VS.
I've never downloaded anything to use in my programs.
I feel like its cheating. I mean if you want to use threading, then spare the user of the 3 boost dll's that they will have to deal with (in the bin) and just learn to thread it yourself.

But again, completely my own opinion.

Thanks for the share , Hope you don't mind if I modify the code a bit...

Omg. I <3 your name.
Assuming its a reference to my fav show The Blacklist
Awesome!

How can you have an opinion about BOOST if you don't use third party libraries? If you want to waste your time writing something that may be better written in some third party library then go ahead.. There's nothing cheating about avoiding having to reinvent the wheel, and unless you are really concerned about preserving the output binary size, there's no need to be concerned about using libraries, whether you compile with their source, or link to them statically or dynamically in the case of a shared library.

Of course not.
You won't even have to mention my "name" anywhere, or whatever. Just do your thing, mate

Not the best code ever

Of course not.

I'm just wondering if char arrays are faster than strings ?

Of course not.

Hey, why don't you use string, instead of all those char array ? [...]

And, i don't think you need to initialize tour strings,
You did like that : string bruteword = "";
But, i think this is a better way: string bruteword;

You're absolutely right. Today, I would probably do it right that way. Mostly.

But, i will publish this code in a new thread to make it better and faster :)

Nice, I am curious! PM me on release if you want, so I can check it out 🙂 I still may learn from it, for sure 🙂

But why two times cin.get()?

Well, that one is a bit embarrassing 😖 used it to force ESC as keyboard input. But it worked so I didn't care further, anyway it's probably preferable to have higher standards than this 😝

Last statement gets the point.
But seriously, "cheating"?? Oh boy. You then would have to rewrite iostream, stdlib and stuff as well in order to avoid plagiarizing and being a legit coder. I mean, where's the ethical difference between including boost or deflibs, actually?
Anyway, under those circumstances you mention, I'd choose cheating without hesitation. 🤐____

MESSAGE WAS TOO LONG; LOOK https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=1426822 TOO SEE THE NEW SOURCECODE!!!

Nah, don't look. It only re-directs to this thread, due to me being stupid or whatever.
Here's the actual link: https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=1430580

Thanks for any other feedback so far! 😉

Completion: I didn't clear my cin steam, therefore the 1st cin.get(); have not needed an "ENTER"/newline ("ESC" was a typo, ofc), as it was supposed to (program pause, you know). But the second one then did what I wanted - sorry, I know this code was disgusting haha
cin.clear(), *.sync(), and preferably *.ignore() instead of *.get() solves this, as you may already know.

Good info everyone! Will take these things into consideration!
