Re: Detecting fake periods

Try to solve it as a regular homophonic cipher, not a transposition. That might be the one where I manipulated the key until I got a false spike at P1…

Hey smokie, Nice new encoder it sounds like. You may want to look into:

Re: Route Transposition and Phenomenon

Jarlve, I am glad you are still working on these ideas. I have been working on a similar idea but it is not ready for prime time yet. Maybe in weeks. …

Re: Route Transposition and Phenomenon

I’ve added this transposition to my solver for the next AZdecrypt release. It has solved your cipher and no results on the 340 so far. It can pick any…

Re: Detecting fake periods

If you only look at the lower half of z340, you will see an above-average peak at period 3 and NO hit for P19 I find that interesting. If you read th…

Re: Detecting fake periods

Example: The series of 11 inscription rectangles are 6 cells wide x 5 cells high, inscribe LRTB, read TBLR and transcribe LRTB into the 17 x 20 grid….

Re: Sequential homophonic

On my to do list is to try to make messages with one simple rule. Randomly select the symbol from the homophone group, except just don’t repeat the la…

You might want to consider making plaintext transpositions, without substitution, with different sizes and shapes of inscription rectangles, to see if…

Re: My thoughts on Pivots with an example.

Hi, I didn’t have much time, but it was enough for a short test. Please do not reference the following results or consider them correct. As soon as I…

Re: My thoughts on Pivots with an example.

In general, you get more pivots if you substitute less cyclically. I set my encoder to 100% random symbol selection just now and am trying with two p…

Re: My thoughts on Pivots with an example.

I checked out the file. I have rarely used the Offset function. My spreadsheet is cumbersome, and there is a more efficient way to do the same thing. …
