3. Exclusive OR operation is applied in WiFi WEP protocol for encrypting a plaintext
to cypher, which is transmitted to the receiver. After receiving the cypher, the
receiver uses the exclusive OR operation to decrypt the cypher to get the
plaintext. Please show the above scheme with:
Plaintext P= 1010110010100010 KEY = 1111000011110101
