Encipher a string using the Atbash cipher
ResourceFunction["AtbashCipher"][string] enciphers or deciphers string using the Atbash cipher. |
|
ResourceFunction["AtbashCipher"][string,{c1,c2,…}] enciphers or deciphers string using the alphabet ci. |
|
ResourceFunction["AtbashCipher"][string,{{c1,1,c1,2,…},{c2,1,c2,2,…},…}] enciphers or deciphers string using the alphabets ci. |
Encipher a string:
In[1]:= |
![]() |
Out[1]= |
![]() |
Encipher a sentence:
In[2]:= |
![]() |
Out[2]= |
![]() |
Encipher the Hebrew word for sun:
In[3]:= |
![]() |
Out[3]= |
![]() |
AtbashCipher automatically threads over a list of strings:
In[4]:= |
![]() |
Out[4]= |
![]() |
Use a custom collation (ordering) of an alphabet:
In[5]:= |
![]() |
Out[6]= |
![]() |
The function is still its own inverse:
In[7]:= |
![]() |
Out[7]= |
![]() |
Define an Atbash cipher for the Greek alphabet:
In[8]:= |
![]() |
Out[8]= |
![]() |
Use several alphabets: the standard lower case alphabet, uppercase alphabet, and the numbers. Each of which will get ‘inverted’ in the Atbash cipher:
In[9]:= |
![]() |
Out[9]= |
![]() |
AtbashCipher is an involutory function:
In[10]:= |
![]() |
Out[10]= |
![]() |
Spaces, numbers, and letters outside the regular English alphabet are not transformed:
In[11]:= |
![]() |
Out[11]= |
![]() |
Use RemoveDiacritics, StringDelete, IntegerName, and ToLowerCase to transform the message:
In[12]:= |
![]() |
Out[12]= |
![]() |
Enciphering the transformed message results in a much harder to crack cipher:
In[13]:= |
![]() |
Out[13]= |
![]() |
Find English words that encipher to another English word:
In[14]:= |
![]() |
Out[19]= |
![]() |
