ciphergeard 1.0

Implementation of several famous ancient ciphers in Python.

Ciphergeard

Ciphergeard is a small package which implements some famous ancient ciphers in Python. The name 'Ciphergeard' is made up of 2 words - 'Cipher' and 'geard'. Geard is the old English word for 'garden'. So Ciphergeard is basically 'Cipher Garden'.

I just randomly thought about using the word 'garden' and stuck with it.

This library provides functionalities to encrypt and decrypt messages using a variety of historical ciphers.

Currently supported ciphers include:

• Affine Cipher
• Atbash Cipher
• Baconian Cipher
• Bifid Cipher
• Caesar Cipher
• Columnar Transposition Cipher
• Morse Code
• Playfair Cipher
• Rail Fence Cipher
• ROT13 Cipher
• Vernam Cipher
• Vigenère Cipher (Standard, Beaufort, Gronsfeld, and Running Key variants)

Important Notes:

• This library's implementations can handle non-English characters.
• Security Disclaimer: These ciphers are for educational purposes only and should never be used for serious encryption. They are easily breakable and offer no real security for sensitive information.
• Future Enhancements: There is a plan to add support for additional ciphers and potentially other languages in future releases.
• Contributing: I would gratefully appreciate any help in improving this package! Please report any errors, bugs, performance/efficiency issues you may encounter.
