Re: AZdecrypt 1.23
Hey ArchOptic, Sorry for the late reply. If you are using 1.23 go to AZdecrypt/N-grams/Languages/, there should be about all languages you need. Usually higher n-grams are much more powerful. Here are Italian 6-grams for you to download: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FP7XWCQM-sskuVffGwGMDi4npl0xw...

Re: Anyone still here from the old QB45 days?
As an 80's kid, in the early 90's my dad bought our first computer, an AST Bravo 386SX 20Mhz 2MB RAM and 80MB HD. It came with MS-DOS, I think a version before 6.22 and Windows 3.0. I spent ages trying to uncover its secrets, learning that .exe's were executable programs, I found Qbasic.exe. Its use...

Re: Windows: Enhanced Sleep
This is great, thanks deltarho, getting a 4% to 5% performance increase in my multi-threaded programs where the idle time is catched with sleep! Are you using 'Sleep' in a test loop of a thread to wait for other thread(s) (or the main thread) ? If so, the most powerful is to use the conditional var...

Re: Freebasic 1.20.0 Development
I often allow myself to be distracted by a variety of challenges and personal interests, so please, some leniency in the previous claim. Sure! What do you dabble in? This question rolled around in my brain for a while. Thanks. As far as freebasic goes, nothing really worth mentioning because if I g...

Re: Freebasic 1.20.0 Development
Thank you allot coderJeff for all the work you've put in.

Re: FreeBASIC 1.10.0 Development
fxm, sounds good, let's come back to it. For now I just want to push ahead and get a release done before we start working on whatever the next thing is. Because of course there's lots of things we could keep working on: bug fixes, testing out the new features, investigating reports from the forum (...

Re: Chatting with AI
I wouldn't trust it for critical tasks, unless there's another component that's able to test the output. I agree. The only thing that you can do is let a human panel verify every output but that defeats the purpose. In time, and that may be soon, we may be able to trust it with critical tasks. One ...

Hey CdnCoder. Sorry for the late reply. Select Simple Transposition (or Columnar Transposition) -> Solve (dialogue box opens, but there is no "OK" button to lock in my selections; I can only close it with the X) I cannot figure out how to launch something like Simple Transposition or Colum...

Re: Famous math problems
hey neil, Interesting problem, gaining insight in this conjecture seems profound to me. I tried your program and it seems that 3x is not easily substitutable by any other number. Are there any other numbers that have this property? It seems to me that 3x+1 is eventually bound to hit a power of 2. Th...

@Provoni Have you made any updates or improvements on your 3 step text encryption algorithm?

Re: Cryptanalysis
@Provoni I already knew that. That's why I only selected an 8 Letter word. This was only an experiment. Maybe you have a better idea of how it could be improved or another method altogether. I like this better than working on prng's. Here's something inspired by your ideas. Transposition first, the...
