I missed class for four weeks(sick) and apparently theirs a CA worth 30% due in at 4pm tomorrow and i cant catch up that fast.

Dose anyone know how to solve a Caesar cipher.

Edit: A=1 B=2 ...,z=0


y = (ax +b) mod 26

I used http://www.diamondcs.com.au/developers/bytebreak.php but no luck :confused: even though its supposed to crack any Caesar cipher.

If you could just get the first word it would help me out.

Thanks for any help.

Last EDIT:

Sorry i got it.

Its "Estimates show"...(Still working on the rest).

What sort of shifting got you "I" for E and "E" for S? You couldn't have performed the same shift on each letter.
