let v = Vigenere::new(String::from("giovan"));
assert_eq!("O vsqee mmh vnl izsyig!", v.encrypt("I never get any credit!").unwrap());

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

Basic usage:

use cipher_crypt::{Cipher, Vigenere};

let v = Vigenere::new(String::from("giovan"));
assert_eq!("I never get any credit!", v.decrypt("O vsqee mmh vnl izsyig!").unwrap());
