## k4: the unsolved cypher

As k4 has been unsolved for so long, there have been four sets of clues given by Sanborn. In the matrix below I've put the characeters for k4, with below the decyphered characters. Below that I've put the shortest distance between the two, and if the letter is ahead or behind the decyphered letter.

"characeters" should be "characters".

For the EASTNORTHEAST sequence, there is a repeating sequence of +---+ relations between the encrypted/decrypted character. Clue 6, the morse code for SOS(...___...) might be a clue that could have pointed here.

RQ could mean anything, but in math it could point to Irrational numbers, as it is R - Q (Real numbers without the rational numbers). The morse above contains a bunch of padding _e_ characters, similarly in how k2 contained a bunch of padding "x" characters where "Abscissa" was the keyword. _e_ is an irrational number, so could that point to having to use _e_ to decypher k4?
