        // To duplicate the results of the Authenticator Test at https://rootprojects.org/authenticator/
        // do the following:
        // 1) At the bottom of the screen you will see a URI such as:
        //
        //    otpauth://totp/ACME%20Co:john@example.com?secret=HXDMVJECJJWSRB3HWIZR4IFUGFTMXBOZ&issuer=ACME%20Co&algorithm=SHA1&digits=6&period=30
        //
        //    Use the uppercase secret.  For example:
        String secretKey = "HXDMVJECJJWSRB3HWIZR4IFUGFTMXBOZ";

        // 2) DO NOT cick the "Regenerate" button.  The regenerate button will generate a new secret.
        //
        // 3) Run the following code to generate your 6-digit token.  Compare with the token shown in the picture of the iPhone at https://rootprojects.org/authenticator/
        //      Note: A new token is generated every 30 seconds.  You must generate within the same 30 second interval to get the same result.
        System.out.println("Your token is: " + crypt.totp(secretKey, "base32", "0", "", 30, 6, -1, "sha1"));

        // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        // To duplicate the results of the Google2FA Playground at https://pragmarx.com/playground/google2fa#/
        // do the following:

        // 1) Copy the 64-byte secret key:
        secretKey = "OR2VQTRVHB2HO2LCGVWXQSCDK5ZHQS2D3THQ6UXO57XIE7ZHOWS6HDPQ622GU747";

        // 2) Run the same code:
        //    (Note: The online tool generates a new result every 30 seconds.  You must generate and compare within the same 30-second interval.)
