This is a Caesar Cipher built in Ruby as practice to help cement more of the Ruby language in my head, as well as the help me think more algorithmically.

The Caesar Cipher is based on a very old method of obfuscating messages. It takes a number, and shifts each letter in your message that many letters to the right alphbetically.

For Example

string = 'What a string!'
puts caesar_cipher(string, 100)

Will output

'Sdwp w opnejc!'

It also has a built in unscramble function, as long as you know the original number the string was shifted by

For Example

string = 'Sdwp w opnejc!'
puts caesar_cipher(string, 100, true)

Will output

'What a string!'

The specifications for this project came from TheOdinProject. I got help from the Ruby Docs, as well as the ever knowing and often wrong Stack Overflow.

My name is Gwen, and as of writing this I'm involved in the Microverse school, training to be a developer.
