## Description

Cryptogram is intended to be one part fun and one part educational.  A cryptogram is the standard encryption game where every letter in a quote is replaced by another (possible the same) letter.  The goal is simple: discover the quote through your knowledge of spelling and English grammar and maybe a little trial and error.  You will be presented with a keyboard showing which letters have been used.  If you aren&#39;t getting anywhere, there is a hint button that will automatically assign one letter correctly.<br><br>Other aspects of the app explore different encryption methods used throughout history starting from Caesar&#39;s Cipher, a simple alphabet shifting cipher, to Enigma, a military grade encryption device used in World War II and, more importantly, the device that was used to decode its messages was one of the predecessors of modern digital computers.<br><br>The app uses a database of quotes from a wide variety of people around the world without any moderation for content.  That said, the quotes are generally benign but I increased the content ratings on the app in case something offensive is in the list.
