Originating from the "brute force" bash script I wrote, crackit times how long it takes your CPU to count up to a number on a specified amount of threads

Usage: ./crackit <possibilities> [threads]
'threads' defaults to the amount of machine cores

make will automatically compile using theos if Theos is setup, if not, the universal build be execute using gcc if the CC variable is not set

Theos is a cross platform build tool. It is used here to allow convenient use of SDKs

If a macOS SDK is available, make MACOS=1 to build for macOS 32 and 64 bit

./make-all.sh will build for iOS and macOS, 32 and 64 bit, and create one FAT (universal) binary

The following command is what I use to compile and test on Ubuntu 16.04

gcc -pthread crackit.c -lm -o crackit

gcc is a popular C compiler, however this has been tested with clang as well

-pthread pthread family (POSIX threading, used for multi-threading)

-lm link against the standard library (required for floor())

-o crackit name the output file "crackit"
