Caeser/ROT Cipher
The Caeser/ROT Cipher is an easy and famous cipher most notably used by the Roman Dictator, Julius Caeser (100 BC - 44 BC). He used this cipher to send messages to his generals at war. The Caeser Cipher is similar to a Vigenere cipher, because if you take the alphabet on the top row (left and right) and move down the left side you get a Caeser Cipher Shift! It shifts the alphabet one letter to the right to get an encoded message! A=B… Would be a shift of 1. A=C… would be a shift of 2, and so on…
A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z |
0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 |
*A shift of 6 would be A = G, and J = P, etc.
You can use a grid-like this to solve a Caeser Cipher!
