Cryptography in C

This project is aimed at implementing fundamental cryptography algorithms using the C programming language. The focus is on both classical ciphers like Caesar and Vigenère, as well as an introduction to more modern cryptographic techniques.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

What things you need to install the software and how to install them:

gcc (GNU Compiler Collection)
make (optional, for easier compilation)

Installing

A step by step series of examples that tell you how to get a development environment running:

  1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/cryptography-in-c.git
cd cryptography-in-c
  1. Compile the source code.

For a single file, you can compile it like this:

gcc -o outputName fileName.c

If the project contains multiple source files, consider using a Makefile. If a Makefile is provided, simply run:

make
  1. Run the program
./outputName

Replace outputName and fileName.c with the actual names of your compiled program and source file, respectively.
