Answers to Questions (FAQ)
How to encrypt using Greek Letter-to-Number cipher?
The encryption phase consists of replacing each character of the Greek alphabet by its rank/position in the alphabet (the alphabet has 24 greek letters, each having a lowercase form and a capital form) that is:
| 1 | α | 2 | β | 3 | γ | 4 | δ | 5 | ε | 6 | ζ | 7 | η | 8 | θ |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9 | ι | 10 | κ | 11 | λ | 12 | μ | 13 | ν | 14 | ξ | 15 | ο | 16 | π |
| 17 | ρ | 18 | σ | 19 | τ | 20 | υ | 21 | φ | 22 | χ | 23 | ψ | 24 | ω |
Example: π becomes 16
How to decrypt Greek Number-to-Letter cipher?
The decryption phase consists of replacing each number N by the letter located at rank N in the Greek alphabet, thus 1 = α, 2 = β, … 24 = ω.
Example: 21 becomes φ
How to recognize greek alphabetic rank ciphertext?
The encoded message with greek alphabetic position is theoretically composed of numbers between 1 and 24 (as there are only 24 letters).
What are the variants of the Greek Letter-to-Number cipher?
As for A1Z26 with the Latin alphabet, several variants are conceivable as starting with 'α = 0' (instead of 1), using a deranged alphabet, etc.
