I've updated the package and now have a couple of encrypted interim steps as well. Download at http://people.bu.edu/jenmeyer/kixtart/kixgolf_vigenere.zip. The package also contains two examples illustrating the encryption and decryption process. I'll be offline until the late evening.

Good luck!

Hi guys,

Missed the game - looks interesting & i would have liked to participate but I was & still am on vacation. Haven't been on the home computer much in the last few weeks.

PS: Jens thanks for the invite. I am looking forward to the next competition! I don't come here as often as I use to because at work my team is cut off from the internet because we are working with confidental information & any access outside the workplace is restricted.

your script is still screwed up.
it displays some [censored] in the console before showing the report.
and WKIX32 is still not recognized by you.

not first tournament where I cry for this...

and could have included some info what is wrong.
now we have to modify your script if we wanna know.

the tester is not valid.
it includes @ in one of the plain texts but does not double it.
still, it expects the outcome to be @.

I did the encoding/decoding manually. Howver, I can redo it and check why it should not be correct.

Jooel: I've removed the single '@' sign from the test string, this should no longer cause any problems. I've also manually rechecked the encryption and decryption steps in the two examples I'm providing in the rules. They both check out fine. Please be more specific when you say that something is failing. Finally, I've run the script with WKIX32.EXE as well and cannot see why it shouldn't work. The results text file is being created the same way as with KIX32.EXE. So, what exactly is the problem with using WKIX32?

As far as I can tell, the test suite is working correctly and adheres to the rules. The new version with the '@' sign removed can be downloaded at http://people.bu.edu/jenmeyer/kixtart/kixgolf_vigenere.zip

So, time to post your solutions. I'll start a new thread for this purpose.
