The first known use of a cipher dates back to the time of Julius Caesar in around 58-50 BCE. This cipher, now known as the Caesar cipher, involved shifting each letter in the alphabet by a fixed number to encode messages.
Do you mean cipher? A cipher is a method of encrypting in which a different figure (another letter, a number, a glyph of some kind) is substituted for each letter. A very simple cipher involves replacing the letters with a number being the number of the alphabetic order of the letter, so A becomes 1, B becomes 2 and C becomes 3, and so on. In this cipher 1-14-19-23-5-18-19 is Answers.
Encryption and decryption algorithms are called ciphers in cryptography
Caesar cipher
A monoalphabetic cipher uses fixed substitution over the entire message, whereas a polyalphabetic cipher uses a number of substitutions at different positions in the message, where a unit from the plaintext is mapped to one of several possibilities in the ciphertext and vice versa.
The BAUDOT code is made from a cipher. The cipher that does this is also known as a Bacon cipher.
A type of cipher is the Caesar cipher, which is a substitution cipher that shifts the letters of the alphabet by a fixed number of places. For example, with a shift of three, 'A' becomes 'D', 'B' becomes 'E', and so on. This method is named after Julius Caesar, who reportedly used it to communicate with his generals. While simple, it is easily broken with frequency analysis and is not secure for modern use.

A symmetric cipher means that the key is the same for scrambling and unscrambling the data. Symmetric = same
The phrase "uvghcl vg phhz" can be deciphered using a Caesar cipher, shifting each letter back by a certain number. If we apply a shift of 7, it translates to "nobody is home." If you need a different shift or type of cipher, please specify!
Before encryption, the data is referred to as "plain text". After encryption it is called "cipher text".
Julius Caesar, of course! It was created for times of war, and it was a very simple cipher indeed.
