A fiber, a single filament of natural material, such as cotton, linen or wool, or artificial material such as nylon, polyester, metal or mineral fiber, or man made natural fibre like Viscose, Modal & Excel is measured in terms of linear mass density, the weight of a given length of fiber.
The vernam cipher, sometimes known as the 'one time pad', is a stream cipher, which providing certain requirements are met, can be theoretically unbreakable.
Also includes runically unrelated blackletter writing style and pigpen cipher. In cryptography, a cipher (or cypher) is an algorithm for performing encryption or decryptionâa series of well-defined steps that can be followed as a procedure. An alternative, less common term is encipherment. To encipher or encode is to convert information into cipher or code. In common parlance, 'cipher' is synonymous with 'code', as they are both a set of steps that encrypt a message; however, the concepts are distinct in cryptography, especially classical cryptography.
