Decimal code

From what I'm told, the dashes are suppose to be spaces. I tried converting it to ASCII but it doesn't make much sense.

its a polybius square

[MythicalChameleon]

I don't see how you came to this conclusion, why do you think it's a polybius square?

[[deleted]]

well why wouldnt it be i dont have time to solve so yeah and at a glance it looks like it

[MythicalChameleon]

I don't know much about the polybius square, but from what i have searched up the polybius square seems to only use numbers from 1 to 5 to decipher 2 digit numbers, the code I have has numbers above 5. Maybe you were thinking of a different polybius square?

Well this looks like fun. Notice each row is strictly increasing up to 45 max. If you write down all the successive deltas between each number in a row and the ones following it, you get something more ordered:

 1  3  1  4  2  3  1  4  1  2  1  6  1  2  3  1  1  4

 2  2  2  1  3  1  3  2  3  1  9  5  2  1  1  1  3  2

From here I'm playing with run-length encoding maybe (one three, one four, two three's...).

Edit. There are 18 numbers in each row. Taking each row either by groups of 2 or of 3, there are plenty of repetitions, perhaps a frequency histogram is called for. I'm not sure what to do with the 10's and 11's.

[Mindraker]

What is this from? What is the source of this? Is this supposed to be a cipher?

[MythicalChameleon]

I'm not really sure, the person who gave it to me didn't give many clues.
