cipher-crypt 0.18.0

//! The Playfair cipher is the first bigram substitution cipher.
//! Invented in 1854 by Charles Wheatstone, its name honors Lord
//! Lyon Playfair for promoting its use.
//!
//! [Reference](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playfair_cipher)
//!
//! The Playfair cipher operates on a 5x5 table. The key, omitting repeated
//! characters, is written from left to right starting on the first row
//! of the table. Other key layout patterns in the table can be used
//! but are less common. Note that a letter must either be omitted
//! (typically 'Q') or two letters can occupy the same space (I=J).
//! This implementation uses the *latter* design, replacing all
//! encountered 'J' characters with 'I'.
//!
