What is route cipher?(a) a transposition cipher that performs encryption by following an imaginary pattern on a grid(b) a substitution cipher that performs encryption by following an imaginary pattern on a grid(c) a transposition cipher that performs encryption by following a zig zag pattern on a grid(d) a substitution cipher that performs encryption by following a zig zag pattern on a gridThis question was addressed to me by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.This is a very interesting question from Cryptography topic in chapter Cryptography of Data Structures & Algorithms II

Answer»

Correct option is (a) a transposition CIPHER that performs encryption by following an imaginary pattern on a grid

Easiest explanation - Route cipher is a transposition cipher. It ENCRYPTS the plain TEXT by following an imaginary pattern on a grid. This pattern can VARY from one VERSION of route cipher to others.
