A simple Caesar cipher transforms each letter of a plaintext message by shifting it a set number of places in a set direction along the basic 26 character Latin alphabet. The encryption and decryption here is not reciprocal as the key must be transformed (-3 to +3) to alter the direction of the shift when moving between encryption and decryption.
