A cryptogram is a coded word or set of words. Typically, each letter is mapped to one other letter.
For example, WORD could be represented by CYTZ, as C = W, Y = O, T = R, and Z = D in this case. On the other hand, CCTZ could not work, as it would spell WWRD.
The cryptogram is often garbled text, but can also spell another word.
