.NET Encoder Wizard is a class library for .NET that includes the most common encoding algorithms as well as popular hash and data integrity algorithms.

The following list shows them:

• Base 64 - is the Encoding Method usually used for Binary files in MIME messages. It is also used to encode data for special characters across telnet connection to certain servers
• Quoted-Printable - is used to encode text for transmission across certain mail servers. It is also commonly used in MIME messages
• UUEncode - is the data encoding mechanism used by Unix systems for encapsulating binary data so that it can transported safely across network connections
• YEnc - is a recently created encoding method that is now used a lot in newsgroups since it is significantly more efficient for data storage than the UUEncode format. yEnc takes advantage of being able to use 8 bit encoding as opposed to the more restricted form of 7bit encoding used by UUEncode
• MD5 - is a message digest hash algorithm that is used for validation and verification of message integrity. It creates a highly unique 16 byte (128 bit) digest from a set of data that is almost impossible to recreate without the same exact input data
• HMACMD5 - is a message digest hash algorithm that is based on the MD5 hashing algorithm but uses a secret key to ensure data security and integrity. Generally used over communication channels which may not be secure or other similar instances
• URL - encoding is used by Web servers to contain all types of data for transmission through the http protocol. It is generally used to encode URL access specifiers and form post data values
• SHA-1 - is another highly secure message digest algorithm used by the United States Government. It is now a publicly open algorithm, which uses a 160bit or 20-byte digest. The hash from any set of data less than 2^64 bytes in length provides a unique hash that is only creatable by the unique byte order
• Checksum - is used for data integrity validation when only a simple method is needed. It only consists of 8 bits, which makes it easy to transmit and store
• CRC32 - or cyclic redundancy check is used for a more advanced data integrity check. It uses a more complicated algorithm and computes a 32-bit CRC. This allows for a high probability of data integrity if the CRC's match

The .NET Encoder Wizard class library has a lot of power and features built-in. All the code is 100% managed and does not rely on any external DLLs or dependencies. The code is written to be highly efficient and robust. All of the different types of encoding have specific options and parameters that relate directly to those encoding mechanisms. This allows for a greater variety of control over operations.
