Sherlock needs help on some cases are you smart enough to help him and be his next Watson? Just some codes you might want to help with! In need of help solving some these coded messages. Dr Watson left with Mary, now I need a new partner can you figure these out for me? -SH

This is a story literally filled with codes. Some only has vowels in it. Some is in number form. Some even has a tricky puzzle for you to solve in order for you to translate the hidden message. If you decipher the codes, it will unveil a murder story. And it is up to you to figure out who is the murderer? Good Luck, Detective

The need to conceal the meaning of important messages has existed for thousands of years. Over time, people have found increasingly complex ways of encoding their messages as the simpler ways are decoded with greater ease. Contrary to layman-speak, codes and ciphers are not synonymous. A code is where each word in a message is replaced with a code word or symbol, whereas a cipher is where each letter in a message is replaced with a cipher letter or symbol. In fact, when most people say "code," they are actually referring to ciphers. Ancient scripts and languages have been understood using decoding and deciphering techniques, most famously the Rosetta Stone of Ancient Egypt. In fact, codes and ciphers have determined the outcome of politics and wars throughout history. There are thousands of types of hidden messages, but here we look at only ten as an overview. Several have examples for you to test yourself with. @seulyoon_park
