Menu Messages\Rot 13 lets you code or decode a message in rot 13:

The screen is split up in two parts : the text to be decoded
has to be typed in the top part, in the bottom part the text appears coded.
Rot 13 is not a real code but is sometimes used in a group to
hide text. for example the answer for an
enigma
or quiz question. To decode a text it works the same.
The method used for coding/decoding : only the letter characters
(capital- and letters, but without accents) are coded. For each letter a number
is given: A=1, B=2, ... Z=26. To code you add 13 to the number and then the
letter found in that position is used.
Example : A has the value of 1. Add 13 to code,
so 1+13=14. the letter with number 14 is N, so A becomes a
N.
To decode you do the same: N has a value of
14. 14+13=27,
as a result you get 1 (27-26=1). The first letter is A, so the N
becomes A.
If you rather code/decode yourself here is a coding table:
|
A = N
|
B = O
|
C = P
|
D = Q
|
E = R
|
F = S
|
G = T
|
H = U
|
I = V
|
|
J = W
|
K = X
|
L = Y
|
M = Z
|
N = A
|
O = B
|
P = C
|
Q = D
|
R = S
|
|
S = F
|
T = G
|
U = H
|
V = I
|
W = J
|
X = K
|
Y = L
|
Z = M
