For example, the sentence -> If man was meant to stay on the ground, god would have given us roots. +```text +"If man was meant to stay on the ground, god would have given us roots." +``` is normalized to: -> ifmanwasmeanttostayonthegroundgodwouldhavegivenusroots +```text +"ifmanwasmeanttostayonthegroundgodwouldhavegivenusroots" +``` The plaintext should be organized in to a rectangle. The size of the rectangle (`r x c`) should be decided by the length of the message, such that `c >= r` and `c - r <= 1`, where `c` is the number of columns and `r` is the number of rows. Our normalized text is 54 characters long, dictating a rectangle with `c = 8` and `r = 7`: ```text -ifmanwas -meanttos -tayonthe -groundgo -dwouldha -vegivenu -sroots +"ifmanwas" +"meanttos" +"tayonthe" +"groundgo" +"dwouldha" +"vegivenu" +"sroots " ``` The coded message is obtained by reading down the columns going left to right. The message above is coded as: ```text -imtgdvsfearwermayoogoanouuiontnnlvtwttddesaohghnsseoau +"imtgdvsfearwermayoogoanouuiontnnlvtwttddesaohghnsseoau" ``` Output the encoded text in chunks that fill perfect rectangles `(r X c)`, with `c` chunks of `r` length, separated by spaces. For phrases that are `n` characters short of the perfect rectangle, pad each of the last `n` chunks with a single trailing space. ```text -imtgdvs fearwer mayoogo anouuio ntnnlvt wttddes aohghn sseoau +"imtgdvs fearwer mayoogo anouuio ntnnlvt wttddes aohghn sseoau " ``` Notice that were we to stack these, we could visually decode the cyphertext back in to the original message: ```text -imtgdvs -fearwer -mayoogo -anouuio -ntnnlvt -wttddes -aohghn -sseoau +"imtgdvs" +"fearwer" +"mayoogo" +"anouuio" +"ntnnlvt" +"wttddes" +"aohghn " +"sseoau " ```
