1. Examples





1. Trithemius Cipher encoder

Text : ABCD efghi
Alphabet : abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
Shift order : Ascending (0,1,2,3,...)
Initial Shift + 0


Solution:
The Trithemius cipher encrypts a message using successive shifts, first letter shifts by 0, second shifts by 1, third shifts by 2 and so on

Alphabet = abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

Letterabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
Number012345678910111213141516171819202122232425

PlaintextABCD efghi

2. Trithemius Cipher encoder

Text : hello world
Alphabet : abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
Shift order : Ascending (0,1,2,3,...)
