Brute Force Program
A Java Program that shows the process of hacking using a computer hacking method known as brute force. The program searches through the alphabet that is set and then uses an increment system to search each letter in the alphabet for a specific letter in the password that is already set up in the code.
Rock, Paper, Scissors Game
A Flash created game that uses ActionScript coding to create a game that simulates the classic rock, paper, scissors game. The Flash software uses the ActionScript code along with the Flash created objects to play the game with another person that has the same game and code through the LAN.
