## 🧭 Overview ## 🧭 Overview
The Caesar cipher shifts every letter by a fixed number of places (with a shift of 3, `E` becomes `H`). This project, from Udemy's *100 Days of Code: The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp* (Day 8), finds letter positions with `list.index` and wraps around the alphabet with the modulo operator. Parts 1 and 2 cover encryption and decryption; a combined program follows in Part 3. Code lives in `src/`, tests in `tests/`, docs in `docs/`. The Caesar cipher shifts every letter by a fixed number of places (with a shift of 3, `E` becomes `H`). This project, from Udemy's *100 Days of Code: The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp* (Day 8), finds letter positions with `list.index` and wraps around the alphabet with the modulo operator. The interactive program lets you encode or decode as many messages as you like. Code lives in `src/`, tests in `tests/`, docs in `docs/`.

Each letter is moved `shift` places through the alphabet: Each letter is moved `shift` places through the alphabet:
`new_position = (ALPHABET.index(letter) + shift) % 26`. `new_position = (ALPHABET.index(letter) + shift) % 26`.
The modulo keeps positions in range for shifts past `z`. The modulo keeps positions in range for shifts past `z`.
Decryption is encryption with `-shift`. Non-letters are left untouched and letter case is preserved. Decoding shifts by `-shift`; one shared `caesar(text, shift, direction)` function does both. Non-letters are left untouched and letter case is preserved.
