A total of 24 bytes are generated, with a parity bit as the LSB of each byte (i.e. there are 2^168 possible keys). The keys are encoded in the order in which they are used for encryption. A Triple DES key is considered weak if any of its constituent keys are weak, or if two or more of those keys are equal, ignoring parity.
