Question

Write a substitution code for an alphabetic string that converts both lower and upper case letters. 

As with the previous question declare a permutation of the 26 alphabetic characters i.e.

char perm[] = “qjczieaungsdfxmphybklortvw”

Now, given a message string e.g. 

 

char msg[] = “secret message to encode”;

Replace all occurrences of ‘a’ with ‘q’  (since perm[0]=’q’)
Replace  all occurrences of ‘b’ with ‘j’  (since perm[1]=’j’)

Replace all occurrences of ‘z’ with ‘w’ (since perm[25]=’w’)

So that, the message is modified to

bicyik fibbqai km ixcmzi

In this case your solution also handle uppercase characters, so that if 

Secret Message To Encode”;

the message is modified to

Bicyik Fibbqai Km Ixcmzi

 

 

For example:

Input Result
secret message to encode bicyik fibbqai km ixcmzi
Secret Message to Encode Bicyik Fibbqai km Ixcmzi

 

Code i was given:

#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX_STR_LEN 256
int main(void)
{
  /* keep the perm[] array fixed as it is here, though 
     your program should work for any permutation array */
  char perm[] = "qjczieaungsdfxmphybklortvw";
  
  char msg[MAX_STR_LEN+1];

  /* read the message from the terminal using fgets. The variable msg will contain the message. */
  fgets(msg, MAX_STR_LEN, stdin);

  /* write your answer here */

  return 0;
}
