The First Exploit of cryptograpy is that 'e' and 't' are the most commonly used letters in the english language. This allows many weak cyphers to be cracked faster by simply assuming the most frequent character is 'e' or 't'.

See if the distributions in your text match this pattern or if it is an outlier.
