Is the answer in English? Are there any tips on cracking a code when you don't know the language being used?
- jgrahamc 13y agoYes, it is an English. It is a very simple code. I would recommend printing it out and using a pencil to break it.
- dutchbrit 13y agoIndeed, it didn't really take that much effort.
- iaskwhy 13y agoI used to play Covert Action when I was a kid and decoding messages was part of the missions: http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110118005142/covertaction/images/6/6e/Decoding_EasyCompleted.png http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110118005142/coverta...
- C1D 13y agoYes the answer is in English. It's pretty easy to crack but may take some time if this is your first time. To do this you need to use Letter Frequency. Since 'e' is the most common letter in the English language you can look for the most common character in the text and assume it is 'e', and if it isn't try another letter. For a list of the most common letters, see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency.
