Simple Data Masking Algorithm

Is there a simple algorithm where by I can convert a numeric value to alphanumeric and reliably convert it back to the same number?

For example, 12345 converts to 00A3DF and back to 12345.

Solution

  • I assume when you say alphanumeric you mean hexadecimal. This has already been answered:
