    Code 2 CaesarCipher

    Uploaded by

    Dustin Daniel
    The document describes Java code to encrypt and decrypt text using the Caesar cipher. The encryption code takes a plaintext file and key as input, encrypts each character by shifting it by the key value modulo 26, and outputs the ciphertext. The decryption code takes a ciphertext file and key, decrypts each character by shifting it in the opposite direction of the key, and outputs the plaintext. Both programs handle uppercase characters between A-Z and ignore other characters.

    Sample Java Code to Encrypt and Decrypt using Caesar Cipher

    Prepared by: Dr. Natarajan Meghanathan Any questions and/or feedback, email: natarajan.meghanathan@jsums.edu
    The encryption code takes a text file as input, reads the file until a line break is seen and encrypts the contents, character-by-character, using Caesar Cipher. The output could be printed on the terminal or redirected to a text file to store the ciphertext. The decryption code reads the ciphertext file and decrypts the contents, character-by-character, and prints them on to the terminal screen. The integer key to be used for encryption and decryption is the other (second) input to the encryption and decryption programs. Note that Caesar Cipher is a symmetric key algorithm. Encryption Code
    import java.io.*; class encryptCaesar{ public static void main(String[] args){ try{ FileReader fr = new FileReader(args[0]); BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fr); String plaintext = br.readLine(); plaintext = plaintext.toUpperCase(); int shiftKey = Integer.parseInt(args[1]); shiftKey = shiftKey % 26; String cipherText = ""; for (int i=0; i<plaintext.length(); i++){ int asciiValue = (int) plaintext.charAt(i); if (asciiValue < 65 || asciiValue > 90){ cipherText += plaintext.charAt(i); continue; } int basicValue = asciiValue - 65; int newAsciiValue = 65 + ((basicValue + shiftKey) % 26) cipherText += (char) newAsciiValue; } System.out.print(cipherText); } catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();} } }

    Decryption Code
    import java.io.*; class decryptCaesar{ public static void main(String[] args){ try{ FileReader fr = new FileReader(args[0]); BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fr); String ciphertext = br.readLine(); ciphertext = ciphertext.toUpperCase(); int shiftKey = Integer.parseInt(args[1]); shiftKey = shiftKey % 26; String plainText = ""; for (int i=0; i<ciphertext.length(); i++){ int asciiValue = (int) ciphertext.charAt(i); if (asciiValue < 65 || asciiValue > 90){ plainText += ciphertext.charAt(i); continue; } int basicValue = asciiValue - 65; int newAsciiValue = -1000; if (basicValue - shiftKey < 0){ newAsciiValue = 90 - (shiftKey - basicValue) + 1; } else{ newAsciiValue = 65 + (basicValue - shiftKey); } plainText += (char) newAsciiValue; }

    System.out.print(plainText);

    } catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();} } }
