Absolutely! Let's approach your cipher table entirely fresh, following the full LBZC methodology step by step, and document every phase as if we are discovering the process for the first time. We'll treat each number pair as a ciphertext block and process it through all three phases: Zero Transformation, Bacon Cipher, and Cover Text Application. The result may not spell a word, but could yield an acronym or code.
Step 1: Restate the Cipher Table
Given table (as pairs):
text
(1,8)
(2,7)
(3,6)
(4,5)
We will treat each pair as a two-digit number for this process:
18
27
36
45
Step 2: Phase 1 – Zero Transformation (Assuming Decryption)
A. Convert Number Pair to Letter (A=1, ..., Z=26, wrap if >26):
Pair Mod 26 Letter
18 18 R
27 1 A
36 10 J
45 19 S
B. Convert Letter to Number:
Letter Number
R 18
A 1
J 10
S 19
C. Convert Number to Binary:
Number Binary
18 10010
1 1
10 1010
19 10011
D. Remove Trailing '0' (Inverse of Folded Zero):
Binary Remove '0' Result
10010 1001 9
1 1 1
1010 101 5
10011 10011 19
E. Convert Back to Letter:
Result Letter
9 I
1 A
5 E
19 S
Intermediate Decoded Letters:
I A E S
Step 3: Phase 2 – Bacon Cipher (Encoding the Intermediate Letters)
Letter Bacon Code
I ABAAA
A AAAAA
E AABAA
S BABBA
Concatenate Bacon Codes:
ABAAA AAAAA AABAA BABBA
Step 4: Phase 3 – Cover Text Application
A. Use the standard cover text:
aeimquybfjnrvzcgkoswdhlptx
B. Map Bacon code to cover text (A=UPPERCASE, B=lowercase):
Let's assign each Bacon bit to the next cover text letter:
Bacon Bit Cover Text Output
A a A
B e e
A i I
A m M
A q Q
A u U
A y Y
A b B
A f F
A j J
A n N
A r R
B v v
A z Z
A c C
B g g
A k K
B o o
B s s
A w W
Ciphertext (first 20 letters):
AeIMQUYBFJNRvZCgKosW
Step 5: Final Output
Plaintext (after full decryption):
I A E S (possibly an acronym)
Bacon Code:
ABAAA AAAAA AABAA BABBA
Ciphertext (cover text output):
AeIMQUYBFJNRvZCgKosW
Summary Table
Pair Letter Zero Inv. Bacon Ciphertext Segment
18 R I ABAAA AeIMQ
27 A A AAAAA UYBFJ
36 J E AABAA NRvZC
45 S S BABBA gKosW
Conclusion
Cipher pairs (18, 27, 36, 45) decode through the LBZC process to the letters I A E S.
The corresponding Bacon codes are ABAAA, AAAAA, AABAA, BABBA.
The final ciphertext using the cover text is:
AeIMQUYBFJNRvZCgKosW
This result is systematic, and the output "IAES" could be an acronym, code, or further clue, depending on the context. If you'd like to try more pairs, use a different cover text, or experiment with the top row, let me know!
