| Nov 28, 2018 at 21:38 | comment | added | Jez Don-Tresgrafteron | i just came up with this one and showed it to a friend who vaguely told me that it wasn't a block cipher. I just wanna know why it isn't that is all | |
| Nov 28, 2018 at 21:36 | comment | added | Jez Don-Tresgrafteron | I just made it up myself. I'm trying to better understand how to design ciphers and figure out what makes or doesn't make a block cipher | |
| Nov 28, 2018 at 21:34 | comment | added | Jez Don-Tresgrafteron | @kelalaka thats why I think it isn't a block cipher, but i don't know how to even compute a cipher | |

| Nov 28, 2018 at 21:29 | comment | added | Jez Don-Tresgrafteron | @kelalaka so in this case, why is my example not a block cipher? More importantly, how do I even compute a cipher :S. Sorry sir, I'm really dumb and stupid at things like this. | |

| Nov 28, 2018 at 21:24 | comment | added | Jez Don-Tresgrafteron | Why is the above cipher not a block cipher though? That's what I'm failing to understand. Also how do I compute the cipher, given a random compression function as mentioned above? Please any help, much appreciated. I'm self teaching myself | |
