Example

Using `idautils.Functions()` to iterate over all functions in the binary and filter those starting with a specific prefix.

Scenario

A reverse engineer needs to quickly identify and list all functions related to logging mechanisms in a binary. By writing a script that uses `idautils.Functions()` combined with string matching, they can easily extract all relevant functions, such as those starting with 'log_' or 'debug_'.

Example

Using `ida_gdl.FlowChart` to dump the flowchart of a function, showing the basic blocks and their successors and predecessors.

Scenario

When analyzing a complex function, visualizing its control flow can be challenging. By scripting a flowchart dump, the reverse engineer can generate a clear textual representation of the function's flow, aiding in the understanding of its structure and logic.

Example

Using `idautils.Strings()` to iterate and extract all string literals present in the binary.

Scenario

A reverse engineer is tasked with identifying all user-facing strings in a software binary, perhaps for localization purposes or to analyze user interface elements. A script leveraging `idautils.Strings()` can efficiently gather this information and export it for further analysis.
