Interesting. Implemented the Index of Coincidence version for a class in college. Was fun.

This seems like the kind of problem that could be better solved by coming up with a better algorithm. Like, ultimately the model is performing an "algorithm" of sorts on the data to guess the key length.

Better switch everything over to Autokey

Time to get rich off the Beale ciphers…

lool I wrote my IB extended essay on this. I had a caesar cipher instead though.
