The Caesar Cipher
This week’s proverb is written in the Caesar Cipher because the Roman general Julius Caesar used it to send messages to his troops. It is a simple shift cipher in which the letters in the alphabet shift down several spaces. In this case, start with A and count down 8 letters to H; the code would be H=A, I=B, J=C, etc. This is an easy code to write and with 26 tries you can easily break it.
H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T |
A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M |
U | V | W | X | Y | Z | A | B | C | D | E | F | G |
N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z |
The solution to this week’s cipher is:
You can be a Tigger or an Eeyore. The decision is yours.
