- A strip of paper/ cardboard with the alphabet printed and cuts below, through which a second strip with the alphabet can be fitted and pulled to the left or right.

|||
|
|
/*How long should it be? We can make it from A3 paper glued together*/
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- A poster with the Alphabet and the number values of each letter, i.e. A=1, B=2, C=3 etc.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- ASCII table
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Braille poster with [Braille alphabet](Visuals/Braille.png) and [a challenge to solve](Visuals/Braille challenge.png)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Vigenere square poster: [good-looking example](Visuals/Vigenere-cipher-cool-background.jpg) just as an idea what the poster should look like and a [usable file](Visuals/Vigenère_square_shading.svg) in terms of size and usage rights
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- A poster with an example of [Vigenere cipher with a keyword, e.g. code](Visuals/Vigenere-example-keywordcode.png)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Pigpen / Masonic cipher [poster](Visuals/Pigpen-cipher-poster-idea.jpg) It's not labelled for reuse so we might need to create our own with this [image](Visuals/Pigpen_cipher-for-use.png)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- SHA-256 poster: /*don't know if we need it. Shall we go all the way to hash algorithms? But I love the text*/
|

|
**Why is 2^256 secure?**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
What exactly is 2^256? Well, if we’re being technical…
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2256 = 115792089237316195423570985008687907853269984665640564039457584007913129639936
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
There is a 1 in over 115 quattuorvigintillion (that’s a 78-digit number) chance of hash collision.
