    You can find books of cryptograms or offerings in various puzzle magazines.  The ones I am familiar with might have a quotation in code ( a could represent s; x could stand for r) .  The substitutions are repeated throughout the cryptogram.  Your job is to figure out what each letter represents and eventually "rewrite" the quote with the "translation"

    Example    EXPERIENCE        PRLPTMPQAP
    P stand for "E"      R stands for "X"    L stands for "P"      and so on.....

    cryp·to·gram (krpt-grm)
    n.
    1. A piece of writing in code or cipher. Also called cryptograph.
    2. A figure or representation having a secret or occult significance.
