Clarity

Hi, apart from the fact that a one-time pad is to be used, this task description does not give enough direction to produce examples that would be comparable, as too much is left unsaid.

You could implement something in a language, check it for the amount of time needed to produce your implementation, (too long and it may take time to gain interest), then the task description could be honed to produce similar and comparable implementations in other languages.

It didn't seem that urgent, to have a very detailed task-description up front, as well a solution.
After all, the task is not much more complicated as rot13/caesar/vignere etc.
With a broader scope, somebody might already have some solution ready, or suggestions / requirements to add.
But I haven't seen much discussion going on about tasks...
