DES_set_odd_parity() sets the parity of the passed I<key> to odd.

DES_is_weak_key() returns 1 is the passed key is a weak key, 0 if it
is ok.  The probability that a randomly generated key is weak is
1/2^52, so it is not really worth checking for them.

DES_ede3_cbc_encrypt() implements outer triple CBC DES encryption with
three keys. This means that each DES operation inside the CBC mode is

UI_add_input_boolean() adds a prompt to the UI that's supposed to be answered
