Cryptography
The art of writing codes
and codebreaking.
Encoding Messages
Plaintext can be encoded into ciphertext using a simple code like
the
one below.
a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z

E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z A B C D

For example, “I love maths” becomes...

This is an example of the Caesar Shift, with a shift of 4.
