   Modern cryptography uses mathematical algorithms to turn messages into unreadable codes, but only if they are implemented correctly.

   Applied Cryptography: Protocols, Algorithms, and Source Code in C · 1994

   Modern cryptography protects messages only if the mathematical algorithms are implemented without errors.

   Imagine you have a robot that mixes the letters of a letter according to a secret rule. If the rule is good, no one can read the letter without the key. But if the robot makes a small mistake, a clever enemy can guess the rule and read everything. So it is with computer codes.
