decodable

Able to crack

Decodable describes something that can be decoded—converted from an encoded form back to its original.

In education, decodable texts or books are written so beginning readers can sound out words using phonics patterns they've learned: The teacher used decodable readers to build fluency.

In computing, data is decodable if the proper key or algorithm can reverse its encoding.
