About Caesar cipher and ROT13 encoder and decoder

The Caesar cipher shifts each letter by a fixed number of places, so a shift of 3 turns A into D. Encrypt or decrypt with any shift, use ROT13 or ROT47, or show all 25 shifts at once to crack a message with an unknown key. Fine for games, never for secrets.

How to use Caesar cipher and ROT13 encoder and decoder

  1. Type or paste your message.
  2. Choose a shift number, or pick ROT13 or ROT47.
  3. Choose encrypt or decrypt and copy the result.

Frequently asked questions

How do I crack a Caesar cipher without the shift?

There are only 25 possible shifts, so try them all. This tool lists every result, and you simply pick the line that reads as normal language.

What shift does ROT13 use?

ROT13 moves every letter 13 places. Because the alphabet has 26 letters, applying ROT13 twice returns the original text, so the same step encodes and decodes.

What is ROT47 for?

ROT47 shifts a wider range of printable characters, including digits and punctuation, by 47 places. It scrambles more than ROT13, but it is still easy to reverse and is not real encryption.

Is Caesar cipher and ROT13 encoder and decoder free?
