Question

The Caesar Cipher has 25 different shifts to try.

How many possibilities are there to try in a random substitution cipher?

A. 25
B. 25 x 2
C. 25^2
D. 25x24x23x22x21.....3x2x1

Answer 1

D. 25x24x23x22x21.....3x2x1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ceasar cipher is a encryption technique, that uses a combination of information or keys to encrypt an information.

The 25 shift ceasar cipher has 25 different combinations, so the number of probable random cipher substitution is 25!,

That is = 25 × 24×23× 22×..... ×2×1.
