@mayank: thanks.
No, I didn’t read any book. Just took some help from friends and started discussing with them. :-). See IOCCC site. They are AWESOME. :-)

If To write code so that all others understand easily and use it, is an art, then to write a code so that no one understands it seems to be a bigger art :P

@alagu: thanks :)
@satya and @bharath: Actually didn’t really think about the string obfuscation part in this. Will see if I can come up with a good post just to obfuscate strings. :-)

an encrypted hexadecimal code, followed by a different bit mask for each entry.

you can have an encrypted string followed by its bit mask, stored (as subsequent entries) in the array. then, print the same.

well u can make the displaying of strings recursive … make one bottom up recursion for printing from middle to start and one top down recursion from middle to end . further more u can write your own printf and scanf functions to print the characters. I have written them once for my lab ex.. i think this wud add more flavour to obfuscation :P
