  • # Introduction
  • What is the Caesar shift cipher (ROT$n$)? It's basically a cipher sequence that changes a letter's value from the number chosen. If we use ROT1 on "games", we get "hbnft". The basic interpretation of ROT13 is iterating the value of a letter by 1 $n$ times. If you still don't understand, try using the [ROT13 website](https://rot13.com/).
  • # Challenge
  • Make a program that takes input of a number from 1 to 25, call it $n$, and takes input of a string. It could be any. Then, use $n$ to convert the string into ROT$n$ and output the result.
  • # Examples of inputs and outputs:
  • If $n = 4$ and string is "Hello, world.", we get `Lipps, asvph`.
  • If $n = 15$ and string is "trololol", we get `igdadada`.
  • If $n = 7$ and string is "gxoxk zhggt zbox rhn ni", we get `never gonna give you up`.
  • If $n = 24$ and string is "I want breakfast!", we get `G uylr zpcyidyqr!`.
  • If $n = 13$ and string is "guvf grkg vf fhf", we get `this text is sus`.
  • Shortest program wins.

Caesar shift cipher
# Introduction

What is ROT13? It's basically a cipher sequence that changes a letter's value from the number chosen. If we use ROT1 on "games", we get "hbnft". The basic interpretation of ROT13 is iterating the value of a letter by 1 $n$ times. If you still don't understand, try using the [ROT13 website](https://rot13.com/).

# Challenge

Make a program that takes input of a number from 1 to 25, call it $n$, and takes input of a string. It could be any. Then, use $n$ to convert the string into ROT$n$ and output the result.

# Examples of inputs and outputs:

If $n = 4$ and string is "Hello, world.", we get `Lipps, asvph`.  
If $n = 15$ and string is "trololol", we get `igdadada`.  
If $n = 7$ and string is "gxoxk zhggt zbox rhn ni", we get `never gonna give you up`.  
If $n = 24$ and string is "I want breakfast!", we get `G uylr zpcyidyqr!`.  
If $n = 13$ and string is "guvf grkg vf fhf", we get `this text is sus`.

Shortest program wins.
