Cryptology is the study of secret writing. You can try your hand at cracking a broad range of ciphers. Breaking these will require ingenuity, creativity and, of course, a little math. However, the focus won't be just on breaking ciphers (a skill called cryptanalysis); we will try to develop new ones (called cryptography), test ones we have made and talk about how easy (or difficult) some old codes are to use.
