Vigenère/Autokey Cipher
                    The Vigenère
                      Cipher is a polyalphabetic substitution cipher. In this cipher, a message is encrypted using a secret key,
                    as well as an
                    encryption table (tabula recta). The tabula recta typically contains the 26 letters of the from A to Z along the
                    top of each column, and repeated along the left side at the beginning of each row. Each row of the square has
                    the 26
                    letters, shifted one position to the right in a cyclic way as the rows progress downwards. Once B moves to the
                    front, A moves down to the end. This continues for the entire square. The Autokey Cipher is
                    closely related to the Vigenère Cipher, but since the key does not
                    repeat, it makes it much harder to break.
