Interesting. A while back I wrote Crypt::Solitaire which is another implementation. I'm interested to run our versions side-by-side.
Btw, Paul Crowley did some nice work in pointing out a random number bias in Solitaire. He attempted to write a new card cipher (Mirdek) that wasn't encumbered by the limitations in Solitaire, but by his own admission, his version suffers from weaknesses as well. Here's the URL of his stuff if you're interested: http://www.cluefactory.org.uk/paul/crypto/mirdek/

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
