Abstract:
In the field of mathematics, a little is known about the application of linear algebra by the students of Busitema university faculty of science of Education
The study has the aim to explore and learn the use and implementation of linear algebra in the simple form of cryptography in Busitema University faculty of science and Education
Cryptography can be defined as the process of keeping information hidden from the unintended parties but for only those with the key decoded the message. Also cryptography can be employed in many different ways of transforming readable data into unreadable form.
This field describes an activity built around one of the techniques to illustrate the application of linear algebra to cryptography.
This technique involves the encoding and decoding of messages where characters in the original message are assigned to the numerical value and the matrix must be inverted for easy decoding.
The method proposed and its principle has great potential to be applied in other situations where the message needs to be exchanged confidentially.
The findings of the message were to develop an e- massing secrete coding theory which showed user friendly and confidentiality. And this can generate easy confidential flow through electronics and online interactions through the use of telephones, computers, iPods and other electronic devices.
