Trait Implementations

impl Cipher for Autokey

type Key = String

type Algorithm = Autokey

fn new(key: String) -> Autokey

Initialise an Autokey cipher given a specific key.

• The key contains non-alphabetic symbols.
• The key is empty.

fn encrypt(&self, message: &str) -> Result<String, &'static str>

Encrypt a message using an Autokey cipher.

Examples

Basic usage:

use cipher_crypt::{Cipher, Autokey};

let a = Autokey::new(String::from("fort"));
assert_eq!("Fhktcd 🗡 mhg otzx aade", a.encrypt("Attack 🗡 the east wall").unwrap());

fn decrypt(&self, ciphertext: &str) -> Result<String, &'static str>

Decrypt a message using an Autokey cipher.

Examples

Basic usage:

use cipher_crypt::{Cipher, Autokey};

let a = Autokey::new(String::from("fort"));;
assert_eq!("Attack 🗡 the east wall", a.decrypt("Fhktcd 🗡 mhg otzx aade").unwrap());
