[Year 12 SofDev] Apple asked to hack into iPhone

[Croke, Daryl D]

Hi all

This seems like an interesting story for Soft Dev, Maths and Computing

https://theintercept.com/2016/02/17/apple-slams-order-to-hack-a-killers-iphone-inflaming-encryption-debate/

Math task:
Work out all possible combinations of a 4 digit password?
Create an algorithm to crack the password.

Coding:
Create pseudo code/actual code to crack a 4 digit password?

ps. Has anyone created simple code in python to do this?




Cheers

Daryl Croke
