Consider an improved version of the Vigen ere cipher, where instead of using multiple shift ciphers, multiple mono-alphabetic su

bstitution ciphers are used. That is, the key consists of t random permutations of the alphabet, and the plaintext characters in positions i, t + i, 2t + i, and so on are encrypted using the ith permutation. Show how to break this version of the cipher.

Answer:

Kasiski’s method for determining 't' works for Vigenère cipher as well. The only difference is therefore in the second stage of the attack. In the second stage, one needs to build a frequency table for each of the 't' keys, and carry out an attack like on the mono-alphabetic cipher. Given a long enough plaintext, this will work successfully.

Explanation:

Kasiski method is a method of attacking polyalphabetic substitution ciphers such as Vigenère cipher. It is also called Kasiski test or Kasiski examination.

The method involve finding the length of the keyword and then dividing the message into that many simple substitution cryptograms. Frequency analysis could then be used to solve the resulting simple substitution.

Answer:

Explanation:

The question does not provide any actual data to manipulate or use as input/guidline therefore I have taken the liberty of creating a function for each of the question's points that does what is requested. Each of the functions takes in a list of the needed data such as a list of field test averages for part 1, or a list of field tests for part 2, etc. Finally, returning the requested output back to the user.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

from collections import Counter

def best_pilot(field_test_average):

   return max(field_test_average)

def find_average(field_test):

   average = sum(field_test) / len(field_test)

   return average

def create_histogram(field_test_colors):

   count_unique_elements = Counter(field_test_colors).keys()

   plt.hist(field_test_colors, bins=len(count_unique_elements))

   plt.show()

def average_name_lengths(first, last):

   first_name_sum = 0

   last_name_sum = 0

   count = 0

   for name in first:

       first_name_sum += len(name)

       count += 1

   for name in last:

       last_name_sum += len(name)

   first_name_average = first_name_sum / count

   last_name_average = last_name_sum / count

   return first_name_average, last_name_average

Net Worth is equal to assets minus liabilities. Which event will have the greatest impact (positive or negative) on one's net wo
kolezko [41]
The answer would be: Go on a vacation that costs $3,500 

Paying off money for buying a car will not decrease your net worth as you get the car as assets for the money you use. But the depreciates 20% will cause you to lose $3,000 assets. Assuming you are not buying assets at all, go on a vacation that costs $3,500 will increase liability without any effect on assets. Paying up bills will decrease your asset but it also decreases your liability so the net worth wouldn't change.
