Suppose that the following 40-letter alphabet is used for all plaintexts and ciphertexts: A--Z with numerical equivalents 0--25, blank=26, .=27, ?=28, $=29, the numerals 0--9 with numerical equivalents 30--39. Suppose that plaintext message units are digraphs and ciphertext message units are trigraphs (i.e., k=2, l (ell)=3, 40^2 < n_{A} < 40^3 for all n_{A}).

(a) Send the message "SEND $7500" to a user whose enciphering key is (n,b)=(2047,179).

(b) Break the code by factoring n and then computing the deciphering key (n,a)
