Thanks a lot. It is the same one, which I have not read before. This will give me something new to read during my work breaks. Thanks again.
Is this the Friedman book that you were talking about?
I see that you tried gradual shift from 0 to 20%. It looks like there may have been a slight improvement but you are doing another 1,000 restarts? He…
This is really an interesting transposition and exactly what I meant by "interlocked ciphers" a few postings before: For the moment I will…
I have been messing around with it. No transposition, Alberti, odd rows one random alphabet key, even rows the other random alphabet key, perfect cycl…
I like that idea too. An Alberti, or Caesar shift, maybe on a period. See several posts here where I toyed with the idea in a different context to tr…
I am going to resume testing on Jarlve 3/5, wanting to know where the point of diminishing returns is for homophonic hill climber iterations. I ran 50…
The longer I look at the cycles, the more doubts arise in me whether they are really relevant. I agree and this is why sometimes I stop looking at th…
Has anyone ever examined the 26 segments in more detail? For example, whether there are repeated bigrams within a segment, or whether the repeated big…
O.k., Jarlve, that sounds good. I put the message in the messages tested tab on the optimization spreadsheet. Looking forward to seeing how optimizati…
Largo: See the 5th post down for another interpretation of the unique symbol strings, and the discussion carries over to the next page. viewtopic.php…
Demonstrate that the actual cycle pattern encoded with can be detected with isomorphic cycle patterns. Show how 408 has long strings of ABABABAB but t…
I cleaned up the above post, and here is a symbol chart showing what phenomenon are associated with what symbols:
Thanks, Jarlve. If anyone ever refers to me they can call me Geoff L., however. My avatar name doesn’t sound very serious, and I sort of regret the ch…
I have been taking a break and reading some classical literature. Starting to get back to the idea of testing, and although I probably can’t make much…
