Edgar Allan Poe


Last week I had a lesson dedicated to this great American writer, poet, editor, literary critic. He is considered as an inventor of detective stories. And one of his detective story, "The Gold Bug", was the topic of our lesson. The story involves cryptography with a detailed description of a method for solving a simple substitution cipher using letter frequencies.
To say the truth I'm his big fan. I found some information, that may be useful for other people.
