Ex 2 Cns - 1022

The document outlines an exercise to implement the Caesar cipher, a simple encryption method used by Julius Caesar. It describes the process of shifting letters in the alphabet and provides a Python program to encrypt and decrypt messages. The program successfully demonstrates the encryption of 'HELLO, WORLD!' to 'KHOOR, ZRUOG!' and back to the original message.

Implement Substitution Cipher


Ex. No. 2
Date of Exercise 09.01.2025

Aim:

To implement Caesar cipher and prove its cryptography.

Description:
The Caesar Cipher is one of the simplest and oldest methods of encrypting messages, named
after Julius Caesar, who reportedly used it to protect his military communications. This technique
involves shifting the letters of the alphabet by a fixed number of places. For example, with a shift
of three, the letter ‘A’ becomes ‘D’, ‘B’ becomes ‘E’, and so on. Despite its simplicity, the Caesar
Cipher formed the groundwork for modern cryptographic techniques. In this article, we’ll explore
how the Caesar Cipher works, its significance, and its impact on the development of cryptography
with its advantages and disadvantages.
Program:
def caesar_cipher(text,shift,mode="encrypt"):
result=""
if mode=="decrypt":
shift=-shift
for char in text:
if char.isalpha():
ascil_offset=65 if char.isupper() else 97
shifted_char=chr(((ord(char) - ascil_offset+ shift) %26) + ascil_offset)
result+= shifted_char
else:
result+= char
return result
message="HELLO, WORLD!"
shift_value=3

encrypted_message=caesar_cipher(message,shift_value,mode="encrypt")
print("Encrypted:",encrypted_message)

decrypted_message=caesar_cipher(encrypted_message, shift_value,mode="decrypt")
print("Decrypted:",decrypted_message)

Output
Encrypted: KHOOR, ZRUOG!
Decrypted: HELLO, WORLD!

Result
The above programs are verified and executed successfully.
