Exercises for Chapter 1
Section. Simple substitution ciphers

1.1. Build a cipher wheel as illustrated in Figure 1.1, but with an inner wheel
that rotates, and use it to complete the following tasks. (For your convenience,
there is a cipher wheel that you can print and cut out at www.math.brown.
edu/~jhs/MathCrypto/CipherWheel.pdf.)
(a) Encrypt the following plaintext using a rotation of 11 clockwise.
“A page of history is worth a volume of logic.”
(b) Decrypt the following message, which was encrypted with a rotation of 7
clockwise.
