Encoding

For example encoding LTS with TEST keyword will result in as LTS, because intersection of row starting from S and column starting from T will give us L letter and so on.

cipher = VigenereCipher("TEST")
cipher.encode("SPA") # LTS

Decoding

To decode we can user the same algorithm but vise versa.

cipher = VigenereCipher("TEST")
cipher.decode("LTS") # SPA

Problems

Easy

This algorithm provides easy-to-encode and decode approach but because of it it is not very riliable.

A's keyword

If we would use keyword or text to encode with many A symbols keyword can be easiely exposed

Capital letters, numbers, spaces and other symbols

Given algorithm does not support any symbols exept for capital letter.

Usages

Mainly used in studing projects
