irrelevant

Encrypts strings with books.

What?

Like the Person of Interest's machine does, but for folks without an in-house personal library.

Any lowercase-ASCII string can be converted to a numbers sequence, such as: 4 4 1 5 3 3 4 4 5 5 2 6 2 1 1 6 1 2.

Assuming that the recipient has the knowledge of which book (text) has been used, he can decode the message: the first character of the messages is the 1st character of the 4th word of the 4th paragraph, and so on.

There's no guarantee that multiple calls will provide the same encrypted message (and they won't).

Why?

Just for fun.
