What I added

  • Language: C++
  • File: CPP/strings/shift_cipher.cpp

Problem

Short description: Shift letters forward/backward by k depending on whether "the" appears as a separate word.

Approach

  • Iterate over the string, shift alphabetic characters with wrap-around.
  • Check for "the" as a word using case-insensitive check.

Time/Space Complexity

  • Time: O(L) per test case (L = length of input string)
  • Space: O(L) for output string

Tests performed

  • compiled with g++
  • sample tests run: [list sample inputs/outputs]
  • edge cases: uppercase letters, punctuation, multiple spaces

Thank you! Feedback welcome.
