∟Blowfish Cipher Test Vectors

A list of test vectors is provided for the 16-round and 64-bit block Blowfish cipher algorithm.

In order to verify the Blowfish cipher algorithm, a list of test vectors is provided on Bruce Schneier's personal website at https://www.schneier.com/code/vectors.txt. Here are 33 test vectors generated by Eric Young for the standard 16-round Blowfish encryption algorithm applied to a single 8-byte cipher block.
