1. The document describes a method for encoding and decoding text using matrices and ASCII codes.
2. It uses a 3x3 matrix as an encoding key to encrypt the word "Mahmoud" by converting it to ASCII values, transposing the matrix, multiplying by the key, and converting the result to binary.
3. To decode, it takes the inverse of the key matrix, multiplies it with the encrypted values, and performs the reverse steps to recover the original word.
