A teacher has been assigned to register you in the House Hub. Following that, I would like you to:

1 -MANDATORY - Implement the Vigenere Cipher using Python. Your code should encrypt and decrypt messages.

2 - DESIRABLE - See if you can develop a program to crack the cipher. Max key length = 5. You may wish to try dictionary attacks or frequency analysis, rather than attempting to brute force 11.8 million combinations. I've attached a pdf of ideas.

This is an open-ended task, so you can work on it how you like. We can look at them next Monday.

Best,

Mr R
