qrpff is a Perl script created by Keith Winstein and Marc Horowitz of the MIT SIPB.[1] It performs DeCSS in six or seven lines. The name itself is an encoding of "decss" in rot-13. The algorithm was rewritten 77 times to condense it down to six lines.[2]
In fact, two versions of qrpff exist: a short version (6 lines) and a fast version (7 lines). Both appear below.

The fast version is actually fast enough to decode a movie in real-time.
qrpff and related memorabilia was sold for $2,500 at The Algorithm Auction, the world's first auction of computer algorithms.[3]
