Section 2.12, due November 20

This wasn't a very difficult section, but a more in depth explanation of how the enigma worked would be helpful, though I think I basically understand it.

But I have always been pretty interesting in the Enigma system.  I read The Code Book a long time ago and had the chance to read about the history of the Enigma and its effect on World War II.  Although cryptography has many non-civilian applications, it seems that it will always be an important part of warfare, for good or ill.
