Atbash cipher in Python
Suppose we have a lowercase alphabet string called text. We have to find a new string where every character in text is mapped to its reverse in the alphabet. As an example, a becomes z, b becomes y and so on.
So, if the input is like "abcdefg", then the output will be "zyxwvut"
To solve this, we will follow these steps −
N := ASCII of ('z') + ASCII of ('a')
return ans by joining each character from ASCII value (N - ASCII of s) for each character s in text
Let us see the following implementation to get better understanding −
Example
class Solution:
def solve(self, text):
N = ord('z') + ord('a')
ans=''
return ans.join([chr(N - ord(s)) for s in text])
ob = Solution()
print(ob.solve("abcdefg"))
print(ob.solve("hello"))Input
"abcdefg" "hello"
Output
zyxwvut svool
