Talk:Polyalphabetic cipher

The method of using Alberti's disk described here is much less secure than the one described at the page for the disk.

==Here vs Substitution cipher#Polyalphabetic substitution==

This is a little odd. The summary form of this article in Substitution cipher is actually somewhat larger and has more factual content than this article! - Ta bu shi da yu 07:35, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Just a note from a Wikipedian curious about cryptography. I googled to find Morelli's page About the Alberti cipher [http://starbase.trincoll.edu/~crypto/historical/alberti.html] and think it might make a useful source. It includes howto information. At present I'm simply trying to solve a clue given in the [http://www.starland.com/ Starfest 2005] House of Vampyr Treasure Hunt. <>< tbc 16:22, 1 May 2005 (UTC)
