I have an idea for an experiment that I will consider. Make 1000 messages that are 170 letters long, and make as many 3×3 pivots as possible by reflec…
I had a weird idea – What if the plaintext was actually just a drawing or pattern made with regular letters? Something like this simple 17×20 example,…
One of the guys who programs homophonic substitution solvers needs to answer this question about number of possible keys.
Language excused and it is perfectly twisted.
I like that and am pondering symbol selection as some type of function. I think it may be a function of something that causes the pivots, but I don’t …
Period 17 is low because you are just shifting columns up and down, and the message is 17 columns wide. I mean, you aren’t changing anything as far as…
4.55% is still pretty low. EDIT: But what if you just make sure to introduce every symbol in the beginning by using a perfect cycle, then increase th…
Hey all — my apologies if I’m rehashing things that have already been talked about. I just wanted to share some quick findings and also ask for a li…
Yes, maybe, because if he started with perfect cycles, then he would be sure to pack all of the symbols in the shortest possible all-symbol substring …
I will take a look into your idea of finding the shortest sub string that contains all symbols to see if it can further corroborate the findings. It …
I am in the process of reading through this thread and making the table of contents with the links much more thorough. If someone wants something spec…
Hey Jarlve ~ I am taking a break from cryptography and reading classical literature these days. I did make a matrix that would produce a lot of pivot…
Is there something significant about period 9?
I also thought, if someone randomly circled 7 symbols from a chunk of text the same size as the chunk of text from I to A in IAAYYAA, how many times w…
Few corrections: First 3 characters: YMB = YBM Line 5: WIWLR = WIWLT Thanks – I’ve updated my earlier post. I would like to update the first post to…
