What can be improved in this PHP code? - php

Question

This is a custom encryption library. I do not know much about PHP's standard library of functions and was wondering if the following code can be improved in any way. The implementation should yield the same results, the API should remain as it is, but ways to make is more PHP-ish would be greatly appreciated.
Code

What should be editted for better memory efficiency or faster execution?

Answer 1

You could replace your isHex function with:
function isHex($char) {
return strpos("0123456789ABCDEF",strtoupper($char)) > -1;
}
And your hex2bin might be better as:
function hex2bin($h)
{
if (!is_string($h)) return null;
$r='';
for ($a=0; $a<strlen($h); $a+=2) { $r.=chr(hexdec($h{$a}.$h{($a+1)})); }
return $r;
}
You seem to have a lot of if..elseif...elseif...elseif which would be a lot cleaner in a switch or seperated into different methods.
However, I'm talking more from a maintainability and readability perspective - although the easier it is to read and understand, the easier it is to optimize. If it would help you if I waded through all the code and wrote it in a cleaner way, then I'll do so...
