File Encryption Filter
File encryption is the science of writing the contents of a file in a secret code. Your encryption
Although there are complex encryption techniques, you should come up with a simple one of your own. For example, you could read the first file one character at a time and add 10 to the ASCII code of each character before it is written to the second file.

Lab Assignment 2: Playfair Cipher
Overview: You are required to use the Playfair cipher to encrypt the message: "Butch." You will
do the encryption by hand. The key for encryption is “Govern." You will need to show your work
for the encryption process. Your submission should be a typed text file
Prog 1. File Encryption: File encryption is the science of writing the contents of a file in a secret code. Your encryption program should work like a filter reading the contents of one file, modifying each character in the input file into a code, and then writing the coded characters out to a second file. The second file will be a version of the first file but written in a secret code.
In Notepad or something similar, you will create a file with text in it. It should be several lines long. Your program should read the file character by character and make some change to the character before writing that character to a second new encrypted file. See program 13-8 to see how to read and write one character at a time.
You may come up with an encryption technique of your own or use something simple like adding 10 to the ASCII code of each character in the file before it is written to the second file.

- Python The program should open a specified text file, read its contents, then use the dictionary to writean encrypted version of the file’s contents to a second file. Each character in the second file should contain the code for the corresponding character in the first file. Your program contains both encryption AND decryption functions. Please do not put them in separate programs. Your program provides a MENU that offers the user a choice to encrypt or decrypt the file and call the respective function. Your encoder function will use the Caesar Ciphe to translate the file Your encoder function will first convert all input characters to upper case. This means that the output of encrypted text should be in CAPITALS. You must use a string method to convert!
