// The problem
A focused exercise in concurrency and low-level archive formats: recover a ZIP password fast, the hard way.
// Approach
- Parallel password search in Go across worker goroutines.
- An optimised ZipCrypto verification path to reject wrong passwords fast.
- Built strictly as a learning project, for education only.
// Engineering challenges
- Saturating cores without contention on the shared work queue.
- Reading the ZipCrypto header path correctly at the byte level.
- Keeping it fast while staying readable.
