Spreadsheets on Jeremy's web site
As at: 11/3/8 (50 spreadsheets)
Encryption and security
OTP.XLS One-time pad generator
Use with: VIGENERE.DOC A tabular form of standard schoolboy coding wheel.
Or with: VIG52VAR.XLS Automatic 62-character Vigenere table generator with sheet for automatically completing a table using manually-selected character order.
PRIMES.XLS Graph of density of occurrence of primes (which are used to produce keys in some encryption systems).
DICE3.XLS Study of probability for similar reason to above (ie: using random data to produce OTPs).
SEAL.XLS Large file! 1.15Mb! Spreadsheet for generating unique, complex, random, backgrounds to print on A4 sticky labels and cut out as seals to apply over keyholes. Run sheet through printer repeatedly for complex intersections - offset page in printer to render unrepeatable.
SEAL2.XLS Another complex background generator. Better page coverage. Seems to need reformatting, in Norwich library. No idea why. Original was fine. To reformat, add axes back, rescale, and remove axes. Designed to save ink. May still be OK without reformatting if you overprint in two orientations.
CELTKNOT.XLS Another seal spreadsheet. A single simple Celtic knotwork design repeated over the page in rainbow colours.
SEALBAKE.XLS And another - repeated sine waves over the page - also rainbow colours.
BINGOPAD.XLS One time pad created using a bingo machine and stats on it.
BINGBALL.XLS Production stats on some FIMO balls I made for the bingo machine to speed up one time pad creation.

HYGRO.XLS Hygrometer reading lookup table, with graphs.
HYGRO2.XLS Same as above, but just the main table.

ELECTIM2.XLS Electricity purchases from 12/2004 to 11/2006, with radar chart showing cost per week for each month. Note savings produced by economy measures adopted this summer (about August onwards).
ELECSAV2.XLS Electricity savings lookup table (savings for any given wattage per day, week, year). Now updated for Powergen rates at 6/11/6. 'Average charged rate' (ie: pence/kWh figure for whole bill) is now just an estimate based on previous figures.

roselane170402.xls Parking against time in the (now demolished) Rose Lane car park.
Postage
STAMPS.XLS How to use 1st and 2nd class stamps more efficiently (use with diet scales - £3 approx). At the time of writing, this is outdated, however, when I update it, I usually just replace the old file with another of the same name.
I have just received the Royal Mail guide to the entirely new pricing structure, which takes into account size, as well as weight and which comes into operation on 21/8/6. So, I won't update the above spreadsheet, but may do something similar for the new system. Find details of the new system at: www.royalmail.com/size.
