Problem 1. The ciphertext
IPQASEKZYSLA
comes from a Vernam encryption with the short keys A and B of length (A) = 2 and l(B) = 3.
Furthermore, we also know that the original plaintext starts with SHOW.
Reconstruct the long key R.
(a)
(b)
Decipher the message.
As usual, Vernam uses the following letter-to-number conversion table.
