I am currently in a beginning c++ class. We have to come up with our own program to write for the end of the semester.
I want to write a crypto program. You'll have to input text, I'll encrypt it. It'll take the ciphertext and output it to a file or something.
The thing I need is a good, relatively strong, cryptography method that can be done by hand. I then want to write a computer program that will automate it.
I am thinking about using the Solitaire/Pontifex method described in Neal Stephensen's Cryptonomicon and here . Are there any other good ones out there?
Thanks!
