D sounds too simple; there must be more to it.

If I remember correctly, creating the word list is definitely the starting point. It’s like the foundation for the whole process!

I recall a similar question where we had to compare hashed words against a target password. But that feels like a later step.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like hashing the dictionary words comes before anything else. It seems logical?

I think the first step is to create a word list, right? I remember practicing that with a dictionary generator.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. "Choose two" - does that mean I have to select exactly two options, or can I select more? I'll need to read it carefully.

Wait, is it the Memo data type? Or was it the OLE Object? I'm getting a bit confused between the different options here. I'll have to review my notes more closely.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The wording of the options is quite technical, so I'll need to think it through step-by-step to make sure I understand the differences between them.
