cryptogram

n. in studies of problem solving, a short quip or quotation whose letters are randomly assigned to replace one another (e.g., s stands for a, a stands for n, and so on). The participant must determine the letter correspondences used in the cryptogram and thus decode the message. See also code test; cryptarithmetic.
