help needed to write a oracle function that can do this...

Encrypt function:

• One parameter is passed to it, defined as a string, and its called strCryptThis
• set the encryption key (g_key) = "ISSUETRK"
• for each character in strCryptThis, have a counter ( =1 ) going and do the following:
• take the ASCII value of the letter that the counter equals to in g_key. assign this to the variable iKeyChar ex: if counter=1 then take the ascii value of "I", if counter=2, then take the ascii value of "S" and so on
• do the same as above except now do it for strCryptThis. assign it to iStringChar
• take iKeyChar and XOR it with iStringChar and assign it to iCryptChar
• take the charactorCode equivalent of iCryptChar and reassign it back to iCryptChar
• take the ASCII equivalent of iCryptChar and reassign it back to iCryptChar here you should now have a number (still in a string format though).
• if iCryptChar is less than 10 then pad two zeros to the beginning of it ex: if iCryptChar is 6 then iCryptChar = "006"
• if iCryptChar is less than 100, then pad one zero to the beginning of it ex: if iCryptChar is 74 then iCryptChar = "074"
• concatenate this value to a variable strEncrypted
• increment the counter and repeat above steps for each charactor of strCryptThis
• return strEncrypted
