More of a side thing I want to learn since they never really went much over it in college, and yes im sure this has been asked plenty of times but Books/Algorithms get updated. So I wanted to most updated opinions/reviews of it.

I am less concerned about the history of it, but more concerned about actual implementation. And maybe by the end of the book implementing my own pseudo encryption algorithm.

I recall hearing something about Crpytool being a good learning program. I don't know if that is still true or not.

I am guessing typical encryption algorithms can be pretty much implemented in most languages right? Like MD5 in php and c?

And please don't use your pseudo-encryption algorithm for anything more important than your own love letters. It's probably best not to use your own implementations of standard algorithms either.

Here is Cryptography for Developers and Cryptography in C and C++ books which I advise you much

The handbook of applied cryptography is worth to read, especially chapter 14. http://www.cacr.math.uwaterloo.ca/hac/

Wikipedia has a good bibliography page on the subject which history page shows frequent updates.
