Hint: a shortcut is right under your nose. Cryptogram! - TheAdventMaster - 05-27-2006 Now I'm no genius, but basics of cryptography is to try the simplist methods first. For anyone who's interested, here you go. Use UNDO as the input_string to undo something, and ESC to quit: Turn Write_To_File = true to write your decrypt to file. NOTE: This does not support switching more than one character in one move. I'm pretty sure you'd want to use MID for that and I don't use MID. Code: Const false = 0, true = not false Cryptogram! - Rattrapmax6 - 05-27-2006 Code: of all the forum members here, many are clever enough to figure this out. .... Few minutes in FBIde changing the letters around as they fitted.. :mrgreen: Cryptogram! - TheAdventMaster - 05-27-2006 I was wondering what 3 letter word has two letters that are the same...That would make sense. How on earth could I have missed the world, "All"? That's normally the simplist one to figure out... ^_^;; EDIT: Updated program to know whether you have switched a letter already or not. No more problems with switching H to I, then I to whatever...

No more problems with switching H to I, then I to whatever... Thnx This was a fun challenge. Make another crypto plz Cryptogram! - Ralph - 05-27-2006 My answer: OF ALL THE FORUM MEMBERS HERE, MANY ARE CLEVER ENOUGH TO FIGURE GY QSS ZIT YGKXD DTDWTKL ITKT, DQFN QKT ESTCTK TFGXUI ZG YOUXKT THIS OUT AGAMEMNUS IS PARTICULARLY GOOD AT THIS SORT OF THING, ZIOL GXZ.

Cryptogram! - Z!re - 05-27-2006 Here's a more interessting one: Code: eôâ°Ã°[^_]øpé|ÿÿÿâ¹Mèâ°Ãâ¦Ãâ¦Ã¿Ã¿Ã¿Â·7éÿÿÿÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂUâ°Ã¥WVSÆìLâ¹Eâ¹]â¹0â¹~ â¹Vâ¦Ã¿â°UÃâ¦m ... Cryptogram! - Zack - 05-28-2006 @Z!re: you sure there aren't undisplayed characters in there? There would be if you copied it directly from some sort of bitwise encryption. Anywho, good job all! Here's the code that generated it - notice how the character correspond. :wink: Code: dim as string kb,ol,phrase,temp,c_phrase Cryptogram! - Z!re - 05-28-2006 Quote:@Z!re: you sure there aren't undisplayed characters in there? There would be if you copied it directly from some sort of bitwise encryption.I'm sure. Well, provided you have a ISO standard charset enabled on your computer, which you should have. |
