Examples

ROT13 (Shift 13)

Hello World
Uryyb Jbeyq

💡 Each letter shifted 13 positions (H→U, e→r)

Decode with Negative Shift

def (shift -3)
abc

💡 Shift backwards to decode

Common Mistakes to Avoid

⚠️

Expecting strong encryption

Solution: Caesar cipher is NOT secure! It's trivially broken (only 25 possible shifts). Use for fun/puzzles only, never for real security.

⚠️

Forgetting non-letters are unchanged

Solution: Numbers, spaces, and punctuation stay the same. "Hello!" → "Uryyb!" (only letters rotate).

⚠️

Not knowing ROT13 is self-inverse

Solution: ROT13 applied twice gives original text. Encoding and decoding use same shift (13). Very convenient!
