Thread: [Q]Hide Password

Hi.
I know you can hide you password (in your .exe) with XOR encryption, but I have a question. I found out another simple way to hide it but I've never seen it before (I haven't really searched for it) so I quess it wont work. So my question is: Why doesn't this code work to hide the password, the password is hello and if I open my .exe with notepad, I can't find the string 'hello'.

PHP Code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{

    int Password [ 4 ];

    Password [ 0 ] = 104;
    Password [ 1 ] = 101;
    Password [ 2 ] = 108;
    Password [ 3 ] = 108;
    Password [ 4 ] = 111;

    char Transfer [ 4 ];

    Transfer [ 0 ] = Password [ 0 ];
    Transfer [ 1 ] = Password [ 1 ];
    Transfer [ 2 ] = Password [ 2 ];
    Transfer [ 3 ] = Password [ 3 ];
    Transfer [ 4 ] = Password [ 4 ];

    string Pass = Transfer,
           Input;

    cout << "Input Password: ";
    cin >> Input;

    if ( Input == Pass )
    {

        cout << "Correct";
    }

    else
    {

        cout << "Wrong";
    }

    cin.ignore();
    cin.get();
}
