+# Cryptopals challenges
+
+This repo contains my progress on the [cryptopals challenges](https://www.cryptopals.com/), which are like the overthewire of cryptanalysis. They constitute a set of programming exercises where you implement cryptographic algorithms and break them.
+
+I understand that I'm (for now) doing this in a deeply-flawed language (C) where there are better and more exciting alternatives, and that my code quality is probably mediocre _at best_. That's okay because this is for learning purposes.
