Dear Folks,

somewhere deep down the internet I found a little bit of code to encrypt a string with rot 13 conversion. I augmented the script such that it can take a string from a file and encrypt it. So far, it only works for lowercase letters. One day, there might be a version that also works for uppercase letters. The string you want to encrypt is in the file “Text.txt”. So, here it is (unfortunately, the indentation got broken, so you have to figure out the python indention on your own):


import string

def make_rot_n(n):
lc = string.lowercase
trans = string.maketrans(lc, lc[n:] + lc[:n])
return lambda s: string.translate(s, trans)

rot13 = make_rot_n(13)

f = open ('Text.txt', 'r')
Data = f.readline()
