This is the first challenge, and it's going to be a very simple one. The code contains a template which you'll use to implement a ceaser cipher algorithm. All you need to do is change the encrypt and decrypt functions defined in main.js.
Ceasers cipher is one of the earliest and easy to implement cryptographic algorithm. The steps involved are highlighted below:
- Step 0: Mathematically, map the letters to numbers (i.e., A = 1, B = 2, and so on).
- Step 1: Select an integer key K in between 1 and 25 (i.e., there are total 26 letters in the English language).
- Step 2: The encryption formula is “Add k mod 26”; that is, the original letter L becomes (L + k)%26.
- Step 3: The deciphering is “Subtract k mod 26”; that is, the encrypted letter L becomes (L – k)%26.
