Description

YDVNPIEOPLSYAOYRHHAEE

This is a message you're to decrypt. It was encrypted by a route cypher (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transposition_cipher). To decrypt it, you need to program a decipher (and yeah the matrix size you're to guess as well) during the stream. If you manage this "simple" task, I'll donate $5 to the Processing Foundation.

Will you accept the challenge?

UPD: The deal is still on!

Research direction

The issue names no repository files, tests, or entry points. Start by reading the linked route-cipher reference and the issue's ciphertexts, then determine the expected deciphering behavior and how a matrix size should be inferred during streaming. Done means the requested messages can be deciphered by the resulting program.
