Atbash Cipher

Category: Ciphers

Status: Registered and callable in the CyberChef 11.3.0 compatibility inventory.

Input / output: string → string

Background: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Atbash

What it does

Atbash is a mono-alphabetic substitution cipher originally used to encode the Hebrew alphabet. It has been modified here for use with the Latin alphabet.

Note

Status here means the operation name is implemented and callable. It does not by itself promise byte-for-byte parity for every upstream option. See Compatibility and current status for the verified scope and known boundaries.

Arguments and options

This operation takes no positional recipe arguments.

Recipe template

Important

This is a call template built from the documented defaults. Replace placeholder values such as empty keys, paths, patterns, or lookup data before running it.

from pychef import bake

input_value = "example"
args = []
result = bake(input_value, ['Atbash Cipher'])
print(result)

Pipeline example

from pychef import Pipeline

args = []
transform = Pipeline().then('Atbash Cipher')
result = transform("example")

Dedicated operation module

The registered entry point lives in pychef.operations.by_operation.atbash_cipher. Direct calls receive the input value and a positional argument tuple:

from pychef.operations.by_operation.atbash_cipher import run

result = run("example", tuple([]))

pychef.operations.by_operation.atbash_cipher.run(value, args)

Run this operation using its shared internal implementation.

Parameters:

• value (str | bytes)

• args (Sequence[Any])

Return type:

str | bytes
