+Language use for communication seems to be part of human nature: perhaps the use of covert lanuage is too

+We all have legit needs for privacy. Cryptography provides technical measure for ensuring this privacy.

+## history
+- caesar cipher
+	- simple substitution scheme (rotation)
+	- vulnerable to cryptanalysis
+
+# General process
+- encrypt
+	- plaintext + key => ciphertext
+	- key is a secret
+- decrypt
+	- ciphertext + key => plaintext
+
+mathmatically
+- c = e(p, k)
+- p = d(c, k)
+
+# Terminology
+- copy later
+
+# Plaintext
+refers to unencypted message. In the digital age the messages are often not plain text (ascii, unicode, etc).
+
+digital crypto schemes normally work on the binary data (images, .docs, .txt, mp4 etc.)
