Obfuscated Code Contest: The Results

[cerin]

I know Stack overflow have referred me to a couple sites on obfuscated coding, but unless I missed something(most likely). It just told me that obfuscated coding was reverse engineering etc. not how to do it.

Hello,

It's quite simple indeed. For instance:

int main() {
    int bc;

    bc = 84;

    return 0;
}

Could be obfuscated as the following:

#define a int
#define d 0x54
a main() {a bc=(a)d;return d-d;}

In this example, a represents and integer. d is a hex value which represents the number 84. We create an integer called bc which equals the type cast of 0x54 which is 84. Lastly, main returns 0, as [84-84 = 0]. That is a sample obfuscated code example.
