<br>Now, in &nbsp; &nbsp; ''changing the case'' &nbsp; &nbsp; of those successive characters &nbsp; ... &nbsp; to what? &nbsp; '''Ab''', &nbsp; '''rS''', &nbsp; ... ?
 
As I understand the Bacon cipher, only two characters (usually Latin letters for this audience) are used. &nbsp; Once two successive letters (characters) are chosen, I don't see how changing the case could be done; &nbsp; it only makes sense to me if <strike>one</strike> changesthere is change to the case of a single letter, and that the upper and lower case versions (of a single letter) are the characters chosen for the Bacon cipher.
 
(I assume the Latin alphabet is being referred to, but could Greek or Cyrillic be used?)
