= Affine = Affine cipher is a type of [[substitution]] cipher. The cipher is of model f(x) = ax + b mod 26 Where x is some number corresponding to a letter, 0-25. a and b are variables. To decipher, the formula is of form f(y) = a^-1(y - b) mod 26 Where y is the ciphertext value, and a^-1 is the modular multiplicative inverse of a
