Task 1.1:

Clarify that we are attempting to forge different ciphertext which decrypts successfully with original key/nonce.

Task 1.3:

How about AES specific instructions in hardware level, how they change execution time? I believe here is issue, that there are differences among different machines if hardware supports this - PyCryptodome automatically uses hardware instructions if available and this brings variety among the results.

Add note that very little data size makes results highly affected by system noise.

Task 2:

For reporting, both original message/different messages and their hashes should be reported for easier grading.

Should be updated already.
