From the page: "Solving enciphered messages requires knowledge of the characteristics of the language. The most basic characteristic of a language is the relative frequency of each letter in the alphabet of that language and the positioning of the letters in relationship to each other as words are formed. " ... nice way to do simple ciphers, but not really recommended for serious purposes, really
