NAME
Crypt::Trifid - Interface to the Trifid cipher.
VERSION
Version 0.02
DESCRIPTION
In classical cryptography, the trifid cipher is a cipher invented around 1901 by Felix Delastelle, which extends the concept of the bifid cipher to a third dimension, allowing each symbol to be fractionated into 3 elements instead of two.
While the bifid uses the Polybius square to turn each symbol into coordinates on a 5x5 (or 6x6) square, the trifid turns them into coordinates on a 3x3x3 cube.
As with the bifid, this is then combined with transposition to achieve diffusion.
However a higher degree of diffusion is achieved because each output symbol depends on 3 input symbols instead of two.
Thus the trifid was the first practical trigraphic substitution.

SYNOPSIS
use strict; use warnings;
use Crypt::Trifid;
my $crypt = Crypt::Trifid->new;
my $message = 'TRIFID';
my $encoded = $crypt->encode($message);
my $decoded = $crypt->decode($encoded);
print "Encoded message: [$encoded]\n";
print "Decoded message: [$decoded]\n";
METHODS
encode()
It takes message as scalar string and returns the encoded message.
use strict; use warnings;
use Crypt::Trifid;
my $crypt = Crypt::Trifid->new;
my $message = 'TRIFID';
my $encoded = $crypt->encode($message);
print "Encoded message: [$encoded]\n";
decode()
It takes an encoded message as scalar string and returns the decoded message.
use strict; use warnings;
use Crypt::Trifid;
my $crypt = Crypt::Trifid->new;
my $message = 'TRIFID';
my $encoded = $crypt->encode($message);
my $decoded = $crypt->decode($encoded);
print "Encoded message: [$encoded]\n";
print "Decoded message: [$decoded]\n";
