This repository contains a simple implementation of the Caesar Cipher, a classical encryption technique used in cryptography.
The Caesar Cipher is a substitution cipher where each letter in the plaintext is shifted by a fixed number of positions in the alphabet.
For example:
- Plaintext:
HELLO - Shift:
3 - Ciphertext:
KHOOR
- Encrypts text using a given shift value
- Decrypts encrypted text back to original form
- Handles uppercase and lowercase letters
