Level 2 - Single Byte - Advanced (Puzzle 4)
Below is a puzzle involving 24 input buffers and their transformed outputs. Each buffer is exactly 64 bytes, shown in hex. Your task: Figure out the logic of the transformation used to go from the INPUT to the OUTPUT. Then, provide a Python function that, given any new 64-byte buffer, will produce the correct transformed output. Here are the 24 input (SRC) buffers in hex (one line per buffer): INPUT #01: 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 INPUT #02:

python function that takes a 64 byte array as input, and returns the 64 byte array as output. - Remember, the transformation is the same for all 24 buffers. - The function will be scored by the number of buffers that are correctly transformed (as shown in the 24 outputs). - And it also will be tested on another set of 24 hidden input buffers not shown in the prompt. - Do not include anything else in your response, no introduction text or explanations. Example Output: def transform(data: bytes) -> bytes: # Transform logic return bytes
