Prompt

In 3-4 sentences, explain a one-time pad. State any key formula.
64 chars

Generation

A one-time pad is a theoretically unbreakable encryption method where a random key of equal length to the plaintext is used exactly once. Each character of the plaintext is combined with the corresponding character of the key using modular addition for encryption and modular subtraction for decryption. **Key formulas:** - Encryption: C = (P + K) mod n - Decryption: P = (C - K) mod n where P is plaintext, C is ciphertext, K is the key, and n is the alphabet size (e.g., 26 for English letters).
