I have some code which is the beginning of a Caesar cypher using the ASCII value of a char and then adding to that value to shift it.
At the moment I have converted it back to a string to print the shifted ASCII values to TextBox3. But I need to convert 'result' back to chars in order to display the encrypted string. This is what I am struggling with.
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string input = textBox1.Text;
int shift = int.Parse(textBox2.Text);
foreach(char c in input)
{
int inputInt = Convert.ToInt32(c);
int result = shift + inputInt;
string output = Convert.ToString(result);
textBox3.Text += output;
}
}
This should work:
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string input = textBox1.Text;
int shift = int.Parse(textBox2.Text);
foreach(char c in input)
{
int inputInt = (int)c;
int result = shift + inputInt;
// result > 255?
textBox3.Text += (char)result;
}
}
