+# Secret message generator
+
+This uses the fact that all random number generation is pseudo-random, to create a script that
+generates some python code which takes a seemingly random sequence of symbols to create a message when ran.
+
+Example output:
+```python
+import random
+random.seed(69420)
+print(''.join(chr(random.randrange(256) ^ c)
+    for c in bytes.fromhex('EAEE924CC3218C27D1EB90648D37606EDA21C1782B25C6F789C0A7BFBE')
+    if random.randrange(2)))
+```
+This would output: "Hello, World!"
+
+TODO: Create a Web interface for generating these snippets of code easily
