I need an algorithm to determine who match who in the tournament bracket, say I have 32 ( number could be flexible) contestants seeded 1 to 32, at round 1, seed 1 matches with 32, seed 2 with 31 and so forth. What about 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th round? I need an algorithm to be programmed into computer.
View 3 RepliesI am asked to save and output a tournament bracket, like NCAA or US Open, two parties play and the winner move on to next round. To display the whole bracket, I need to find a way to maintain the hierarchy, say I have the following class:

This is good for a single contest inside the tournament, but how do I change the class or use other classes to support hierarchy? Also if possible can someone show me the best way to model this in SQL server tables?

I have an excel header that has the following header title : "REMARKS (i.e. awarded etc.)"

I am customizing the asp:PasswordRecovery control by adding an own UserNameTemplate. This all works fine, but as soon as I am adding any "Angle Bracket Percent" (<%=) into the UserNameTemplate, the entire PasswordRecovery control falls back to the default design and doesn't use my own UserNameTemplate anymore.
For instance, if I customize a asp:PasswordRecovery control as follows, it works fine ...
[Code]....
... but when I add <%= "Hello world" %> it uses the default layout:
[Code]....
Is this a bug or do I need to change anything? Using Angle Bracket Percent in asp:Login (within LayoutTemplate) works fine, but not in asp:PasswordRecovery. The reason why I need/want to use Angle Bracket Percent is because I want to get localized text out of an XML file (e.g. "<%= GetText("ForgotPassword.Introduction") %>"). However, this shouldn't be the problem as asp:PasswordRecovery even breaks if I use the "<%= "Hello world" %> phrase in the example stated above.
PasswordDeriveBytes take 4 paramteres and return an encrypted key basead on 4 parameters: passPhrase, saltValue, hashAlgoithm and password iteration
I wonder what algorithm PasswordDeviveBytes are using, so I can tell someone who are not .NET programmer that this secretkey was made by that alogorithm and that he can use this algorithm also - And then he should get the same results as PasswordDeriveBytes method
We are converting an ASP site (using DotNetNuke) to a new PHP site. The only thing we have right now is a full export of the existing database. One of the tables is called "aspnet_Membership" and contains the following fields:
Password (looks like base64)
PasswordFormat (always value 2)
PasswordSalt (looks like base64)
PasswordQuestion (always empty)
PasswordAnswer (always empty)
We would like to decode these passwords and hash them to fit our own framework. From what I understand from the .NET documentation these kind of passwords can be decrypted. Is there an algorithm available that can do this or is it more complicated than that? Will it be possible if we create an ASP script on the current server?
can I change the password algorithm and still use the sqlMembershipProvider or do I have to create a new sqlMembershipProvider. If so, are they any step by step tutorials on how to do that.

So if i know the SHA1 encryption and decryption algorithm can i tamper a ViewState?I mean a malicious user studies SHA1 encryption algorithm,if he understand that algorith and develops decryption algorithm ,will it open the road of viewstate tampering? or SHA1 or other algorithm uses any random tricks for encryption and decryption?

View 1 RepliesI need an example on how to implement AES encryption/decryption in .NET. I've been googling but haven't yet found any good examples. I've for example found AES example whih after some research wasn't 100% AES. I have to make sure by AES encryption/decryption is 100% AES, as I have to send email to the authorities explaining how I use AES (with secret key all), so they can hire some encryption expert which verify that we encrypt/decrypt it correctly. So he can verify that the what I implemented in AES is actually 100%. I'm reading the AES standard and how it's to be implemted in .NET Here is some code I'm having trouble with:

The check digit calculation uses the standard method. Suppose you want to calculate the check digit for ID number 10614141192837465.
Step One: From the right to left, start with odd position, assign the odd/even position to each digit.
Index
1
2
3
4
5
Digit
1
0
6
1
Position
odd
even
odd
even
Step Two: Sum all digits in odd position and multiply the result by 3.
(1+6+4+4+1+2+3+4+5)*3=90
Step Three: Sum all digits in even position.
(0+1+1+1+9+8+7+6)=33
Step Four: Sum the results of step three and four:
90+33=123
Step Five: Divide the result of step four by 10. The check digit is the number which adds the remainder to 10. In our case, divide 123 by 10 we get the remainder 3. The check digit then is the result of
10-3=7.
I'm trying to get a decent sorting algorithm for my products database. Users can vote for their products with using scores from 0 to 5 (.5 scores are also possible like 2.5). My table structure currently looks like this:
[ProductID] [Title] ... [NumberOfVotes] [TotalPoints] [FinalScore]
Whenever a user votes I'm calculating the finalscore very simple like (TotalPoints / NumberOfVotes) = FinalScore. Then I sort the table on FinalScore and NumberOfVotes.Now while this works it's not excactly fair because a product which has only 1 vote of 5 stars can easily come in top rankings.I admit I'm not very good at statistics or algorithms to get a fair product listing and what I'm looking for is something which is not over the top diffucult but which is more fair then the method I'm using now.
I have a page that will receive an encrypted query string containing a user name, password & jobId, the problem is I don't want someone to be able to grab the encrypted url (browser history) and reuse it, so it has to change each time the page is requested.
The only way I can think of doing this is by having an encryption key associated with the the job and then change it after each time the page is requested. The client would either request the key or the entire url from a web service residing on my server.
Is this the best way to do this?
Is there a mutating encryption method out there I could use "out the box"?

I am planning to write a custom 'password reset control' that allows an Administrator to reset the user's password, while using the ASP.NET built-in 'login' and 'create new user' controls.

View 1 RepliesI have a bunch of internet devices which communicate with my MVC app on IIS 7.5. I'm currently using the built-in dynamic transparent compression (gzip/deflate).
I'd like to be able to support a different compression algorithm, which does a lot better than gzip (7zip) for the content I'm sending/receiving.
In other words, on the client I will add the header: accepts: gzip, deflate, 7zip (or similar), and the server will recognize this, and apply the best choice when sending the content.
What's the best way to go about hooking this all together? (I know how to implement the actual 7zip encode/decode aspect)
I have two tables which at first I made both of their primary key auto increment.I finished what needed to be done and faced an error.I realised that auto increment was not a good solution for this case so I decided to make an algorithm that will give a different key number.So I went to tables properties and removed their ID Specification (is ID) and turned it no.
