A cryptographic tomb of ciphers forgotten by time.
Documentation
//! The Porta Cipher is a polyalphabetic substitution cipher. It was invented
//! by Giovanni Battista della Porta, an Italian polymath, in 1563.
//!
//! To generate the keystream for encryption, a key is repeated as often as
//! needed to match the number of (alphabetic) symbols in the plaintext message.
//! Finally, the (alphabetic) symbols of the message are substituted using a
//! substitution table. Since Porta is a reciprocal cipher, decryption works
//! the same as encryption.
//!
//! This implementation uses the following substitution table:
//! ```text
//! Keys| a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z
//! ---------------------------------------------------------
//! A,B | n o p q r s t u v w x y z a b c d e f g h i j k l m
//! C,D | o p q r s t u v w x y z n m a b c d e f g h i j k l
//! E,F | p q r s t u v w x y z n o l m a b c d e f g h i j k
//! G,H | q r s t u v w x y z n o p k l m a b c d e f g h i j
//! I,J | r s t u v w x y z n o p q j k l m a b c d e f g h i
//! K,L | s t u v w x y z n o p q r i j k l m a b c d e f g h
//! M,N | t u v w x y z n o p q r s h i j k l m a b c d e f g
//! O,P | u v w x y z n o p q r s t g h i j k l m a b c d e f
//! Q,R | v w x y z n o p q r s t u f g h i j k l m a b c d e
//! S,T | w x y z n o p q r s t u v e f g h i j k l m a b c d
//! U,V | x y z n o p q r s t u v w d e f g h i j k l m a b c
//! W,X | y z n o p q r s t u v w x c d e f g h i j k l m a b
//! ```
//! For every key-message symbol pair `(k, m)`, the corresponding ciphertext
//! symbol is determined by selecting the table row according to `k` and the
//! column according to `m`.
