Hello Dr. Guo,

I am wondering if the tables listed below for DES and AES will be provided on the exam day or we should have these on our cheatsheet.
    - Initial and final permutation tables  (DES)
    - Expansion P-box   (DES)
    - S-box 1 through 8 (DES)
    - Straight (final) permutation table (DES)
    - Parity-bit drop table (DES key gen.)
    - Number of bits shifts table (DES key gen.)
    - Key-compression table (DES key gen.)
    - SubNibble Transformation Table (AES)

Also, could you confirm that (or correct me) the following two constants are expected to be used for MixedColumns in AES
-  MC: [1 4 4 1]    <-- corresponds to the indices 00 01 10 11 of the 2 x 2 matrix
- inverse MC: [9 2 2 9]​

Thank you,

Got it. Thank you,
