Question

Q16-Decoder (0.5 points) Write a code block to decode strings from secret encodings back to readable messages. To do so: Initialize a variable called decoded as an empty string . Use a for loop to loop across all characters of a presumed string variable called encoded Inside the loop, convert the character to another character o Get the unicode code point for the character (using ord o Subtract the value of key to that code point (which should be an int) o This undoes the secret encoding of the character, getting back to the original value Convert this new int back to a character (using chr). Also inside the loop, add this converted char to the string decoded Note that the code to answer this question should look very similar to how you answered the encoding question. In fact, you can even copy over the encoding code, and make some small changes to make it function as a decoder. In [ ]: %%writefile A2Code/decoder.py #YOUR CODE HERE raise NotImplementedErrorO In [87]: key 200 encoded-Iij3k %run -i ./A2Code/decoder.py assert isinstance(decoded, str) assert decodedhello" print( Encoded Message: t, encoded) print( Decoded Message: It', decoded)

Answer 1

CODE:

encoded = "İĭĴĴķ"
key = 200

# BELOW IS  THE CODE FOR DECODING THE STRING
decoded = ""
for i in encoded: # Traversing over encoded string
    unicode = ord(i) # Getting the unicode of the chracter
    decoded += chr(unicode-key) # Subtracting key and converting back to character
    
print("Encoded Message: \t",encoded)
print("Decoded Message: \t",decoded)

OUTPUT:

encoded"Iijjk" key-20e # BELOW IS THE CODE FOR DECODING THE STRING decoded "" for i in encoded: # Traversing over encoded string unicode -ord(1) # Getting the unicode of the chracter decoded +-chr(unicode-key) # Subtracting key and converting back to character print("Encoded Message: It",encoded) print("Decoded Message: It", decoded) Iijjk hello Encoded Message: Decoded Message:
