I'm slightly confused :s if I wanted to write my name it would be
- Code:
-
SHONONREKNGREPEONGRE AHTRNHOPROPGNRTNHHPR SGOTHPTRHOT?HOPT?HOR 04040346352543LOGOP34? 1432546454H6H65H7II67I
Ok that's all easy what I don't understand is this

Then to encrypt a message like "til the cows come home" you encrypt the first letter using the C line, the next letter using the O line, and so on. Here is the message with the line used to encrypt it written below: CODE
TIL THE COWS COME HOME COW SCO WSCO WSCO WSCO
so for line C, T is encrypted as V for line O, I is encrypted as W for line W, L is encrypted as H for line S, T is encryptes as L, for line C, H is encrypted as J for line O, E is encrypted as S ...and so forth
The final encrypted message, with word breaks preserved, would be: VWH LJS YGYG YGOS DGOS
Notice the repeating YGYG YG. That's an interesting thing. With Vigenere, encrypting C with a key of W is the same as encrypting W with a key of C. The word COWS is encrypted with a key of WSCO. So CO with a key of WS encrypts as YG. Likewise, WS with a key of CO also encrypts as YG.
Can anyone explain to me please?
