Learning Haskell: Caesar cipher
In my quest to learn Haskell I’ve been reading through Learn You A Haskell, a great book on understanding Haskell.
BEFORE WE START: I do not know much about Haskell, I’ve started learning it literally last week. So please do correct me if I make mistakes in this post 🙂
While reading about function signatures and recursion […]
Caesar used to communicate privately by encrypting his correspondence with what came to be called the #caesarcipher.
This simple and widely known encryption technique is a substitution cipher in which each letter in plaintext is replaced by another letter following a fix position further up or down the alphabet.
This modest form of #encryption required no mathematics, and it could be done by finger-counting.

Ciphertext is unreadable data that can only be read if you know the key.
🔑 More than 2000 years ago, #Caesar was already using a form of encryption in Ancient Rome called the #CaesarCipher.
Now, much more complex #encryption ensures your data privacy: https://proton.me/blog/what-is-ciphertext
