Python Beginner Project: Build a Caesar Cipher Encryption App

In this video, we're going to learn Python by building a mini project that can encrypt and decrypt messages using the Caesar Cipher algorithm.

The Caesar Cipher is named after the Roman Emperor, Julius Ceasar, who encrypted handwritten messages by shifting each of the letters so that his enemies couldn't read them if they were intercepted.

This project itself is quite simple, but we'll get to apply a lot of different techniques, so it's perfect for beginners who want to learn Python.

I had this project assigned to me recently, and I basically knew the logic, but I am not fluent in python syntax, so it was a little hard for me. Coming across this video was really lucky, helped me understand the syntax, and you optimized it as well, which was a learning experience for me. Thanks you for this tutorial!

All your videos are spot on! Clear, easy to follow, yet very informative. Very grateful for your videos!

I read a bunch of articles about this and didn't understand the concept, but your explanation made it incredibly easy.

You are a life saver. Thank you for explaining it so well!

[boyar]

Thank you man ! It it's a good beginner project and I learned a few coding tips from this video, thank you !

Jack your that guy!!
Appreciate you bro 👊🏾💙😎

[chuhu]

Thank you 😭i couldn't figure out how to fix edge cases for the life of me😭

that is AWSOME dude, i only have one question, what commands can i use without needing the bot to have a high rank?

[DasashSimachew-doro]

which type of version is the python sw

Geez, if this project is for beginners, imagine more complex and complicated real world problems that have to be solved with Python.

whenever i include the function it doesnt work

Decryption part need… it was much easier to learn encryption could be good if you upload decryption too
