Frequently Asked Questions

What is letter frequency analysis?

It counts how often each letter appears. In typical English, E is most common (about 12%), followed by T and A — a pattern used to crack substitution ciphers like Caesar and cryptograms.

Are spaces and punctuation counted?

They are excluded by default so percentages reflect letters only. A separate counter shows total characters, letters and non-letters.

Can I include accented letters?

Yes. Accented characters such as é are counted as their own letters in the "all characters" view when they appear in your text.

How can I use this to solve a cipher?

Match the most frequent letters in the cipher text to E, T and A in English, then test likely substitutions. The Caesar Cipher tool can then confirm the shift.
