Cracking Codes With Python by Al Sweigart

Cracking Codes With Python by Al Sweigart

Cracking Secret Codes with Python is a hands-on introduction to Python that teaches readers how to make and hack cipher programs, which are used to encrypt secret messages. It covers ciphers like the Caesar cipher, transposition cipher, and the RSA cipher, and teaches readers how to test and hack them. For every program, Sweigart provides the full source code and then walks readers through it, explaining how every line works. Along the way, readers will learn Python fundamentals - and by the book's end, they'll have a solid foundation in Python and some fun programs under their belt.

—Ray Doyle, The Ethical Hacker Network

“I recommend this book for anyone who wants to learn Python/programming and is interested in security or puzzles.”

“A fantastic programming and cryptography course for any high school-aged child.”
