thesis
Historical ciphers are the best available teaching ground for search, statistics and constraint propagation, and everything in them is long declassified. A workbench that shows its reasoning beats one that returns a plaintext.
what it does
- Classical ciphers only, the pedagogy, not live systems
- Shows the search, including the branches it abandoned
- Fails visibly when the key space defeats it
