Which is the meaning of the word cryptologists?
Abc
Cryptologists looked for cribs, which are repeated
expressions in messages. Sloppy operators would repeat
phrases like "nothing to report" or "weather forecast"
(Wettervorhersage), which served as clues. If there were no
cribs to be found, the British would send out false
information about, say, British mines planted in a given
area. The Germans might then send messages with the
name of that area, which would provide clues about
deciphering that code.
