Here, there are a series of labs on transposition ciphers. They are meant to be visited in the following order:
- CommonProperties: an offshoot of
CryptoProofstreating higher-order functions and properties. - Transposition: a library defining common concepts for transposition ciphers; most notably permutation mappings and supporting functions and properties.
- Esrever: a trivial reverse “cipher” demonstrating how to specify permutation mappings for the encrypt and decrypt functions from Transposition:
- Scytale: an adaptation of the Scytale cipher described in Programming Cryptol.
- RailFence: a specification of the Rail Fence cipher, which is easy on paper but hard in Cryptol.
- Route: an unguided suggestion for sufficiently motivated course participants to define the Route cipher using concepts learned in prior labs.
