Updates to 2020/ferguson[12] wrt recipe
In 2020/ferguson1 the chocolate-cake.md file has been updated with a suggestion that those who try it let me know how they like it and sharing pictures (on mastodon). In 2020/ferguson2 all chocolate cake related files have been removed. A new file encrypted.html has been added with a new task one might wish to try since the cake recipe is in 2020/ferguson1. The make clobber rule in 2020/ferguson2 removes decrypted.html (the recode.md file now shows how one might decrypt the encrypted.html in the file decrypted.html but this file should not be committed and is now in, along with a few others, .gitignore). The html files have NOT been updated as manifest issues have to be resolved first.

N.B. At the end of this file I have given a fun exercise that can be used to
|
||||
explore my [Enigma machine](https://www.cryptomuseum.com/crypto/enigma/index.htm)
|

[simulator](prog.c). It's especially worth doing if you you like good chocolate and could

use a delicious [Double-layered Chocolate Fudge Cake][].

Alternatively if you just want the [recipe](../ferguson1/chocolate-cake.md)
|

you could look at my [Snake entry 'Don't tread on me'

award](../ferguson1/prog.c) since it's also there and not enciphered.

[simulator](prog.c). I really encourage you to do this but of course you don't
|

have to if you don't wish to.

As I was making the above silly list something occurred to me. My [other
|
||||
entry](/2020/ferguson1/prog.c) this year includes a recipe for a wonderful
|
||||
double-layered chocolate fudge cake but why would it not be included in this one
|
||||
too? But then if that's the case why on Earth should it be unscrambled?
|
||||
entry](https://www.ioccc.org/2020/ferguson1/index.html) this year includes a
|
||||
[recipe for a wonderful double-layered chocolate fudge
|
||||
cake](https://www.ioccc.org/2020/ferguson1/chocolate-cake.html) but then
|
||||
shouldn't this entry include something that is fun too? But if that's the case
|
||||
why on Earth should it be unscrambled? It would be more fun and a great way to
|
||||
explore this entry if you have to use the Enigma machine to read the message!
|
||||
|
||||
So this is what I offer: if you take one of the settings below and run the
|
||||
simulator on the file [chocolate-cake.html][] you will have a wonderful
|
||||
chocolate cake recipe (that even my late stepmum who didn't even like chocolate
|
||||
loved - it's a speciality of my mum's and they were the best of friends too). If
|
||||
you're lazy (or just want some delicious double-layered chocolate fudge cake!)
|
||||
just go and look at the [recipe](../ferguson1/chocolate-cake.html) (or
|
||||
[here](../ferguson1/chocolate-cake.md) if on GitHub) in my other entry. Then
|
||||
again if you're lazy you're probably not reading this far! :)
|
||||
Enigma machine simulator on the file [encrypted.html][encrypted.html] you will
|
||||
unlock a html file with something special in it. I recommend you decrypt it to
|
||||
`decrypted.html` and open it in a web browser.
|
||||
|
||||
The settings is one of the below but a couple questions you might ask yourself:
|
||||
The correct settings is listed below but *you* must determine which one is the
|
||||
right line. Before you do this here are some things to ask yourself:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Are any invalid input?
|
||||
0. Are any invalid input?
|
||||
|
||||
2. Is there some other kind of trickery involved here?
|
||||
1. Is there some other kind of trickery involved here?
|
||||
|
||||
I can think of the best way to answer these and I think I need not even mention
|
||||
it. Have fun and enjoy!
|
||||
|
||||
BTW: Depending on where you are in this world and how warm it is the icing can
|
||||
be a bit of an issue - I give some ideas in the file on what can be done for
|
||||
this. At worst though the icing won't come out as good as it usually does.
|
||||
That's assuming you follow in the instructions exactly as they are; it's a very
|
||||
picky recipe.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Hints:
|
||||
|
||||
1. It's not the middle one.
|
||||
0. It's not the middle one.
|

|

2. Yes there are some things kind of spelt here. These include things about
|
||||
cake and chocolate. Some things spelt mean nothing whatever and can be
|
||||
considered coincidences. Some were randomised.

To help you out, though, this is how you might do the decrypting. Assuming that
|
||||
the key you wish to select is
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
0EZ4PC1CC0PGTAQSOXWNMDRYKFUZEI
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
you can do:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
./recode -R0EZ4PC1CC0PGTAQSOXWNMDRYKFUZEI -fencrypted.html | ./prog - 2>/dev/null > decrypted.html
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then open `decrypted.html` in your browser.
