In this video, we're going to learn Python by building a mini project that can encrypt and decrypt messages using the Caesar Cipher algorithm.
🔗 Code: github.com/pixegami/python-caesar-cipher
The Caesar Cipher is named after the Roman Emperor, Julius Ceasar, who encrypted handwritten messages by shifting each of the letters so that his enemies couldn't read them if they were intercepted.
This project itself is quite simple, but we'll get to apply a lot of different techniques, so it's perfect for beginners who want to learn Python.
00:00 Introduction
01:09 What is the Caesar cipher?
02:43 Looping through the message
05:45 Shifting the ASCII code
09:28 Using if/else conditions
12:26 Fixing edge cases
16:06 Creating a function in Python
20:12 How to get user input in Python
24:39 Wrapping up
