+title: Encryption in Python

+
+During my last year of highschool, I designed my very own text encryption
+algorithm and wrote software to encode/decode it.
+
+I was tasked in the context of
+one of my classes to carry a project of my choosing. This class' goal
+was mainly to teach students about managing long term project when
+it comes to deadlines, research and organisation. The project itself
+however, didn't matter and could be whatever you dreamed about.
+
+There's a student that wrote a recipe book, another built a potato gun.
+When it came my turn to pick, I decided I wanted to do something related
+to software development and math: A text encryption software utilizing
+a custom algorithm that I had made. Let's be real, the algorithm itself
+isn't good by any stretch of the imagination, but it did drive me to
+be creative and to learn a whole lot about information theory.
