i don't know how to finish that need help
plz
i dont know how to do this in caesar cipher
help plz

For a rotating cipher you would reverse the operation to decrypt. So add 3 for encryption and subtract 3 for decryption:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

string Encrypt(string const& s)
{
    string result;

    for (int i = 0; i < s.size(); i++)
    {
        result.push_back(s[i] + 3);
    }

    return result;
}

string Decrypt(string const& s)
{
    string result;

    for (int i = 0; i < s.size(); i++)
    {
        result.push_back(s[i] - 3);
    }

    return result;
}

int main()
{
    string cipher = Encrypt("testing 1...2...3...");

    cout << cipher << endl;
    cout << Decrypt(cipher) << endl;
}

The above example is broken, by the way. If the char type is signed and adding or subtracting 3 from s would overflow, the program invokes undefined behavior. But working around that is a lesson for another day. :) Best it keep things simple at first.

thanks for that

Why are you using (isspaces) in decryption??? not needed.

Encryption and reverse for Decryption good luck.
for(i=0;i<=x-1;i++)
{
cipher = clear+3;
}
cipher[x] = '\0';

thanks for that

Was my post not clear enough? Please point out what's not clear to you and I'll be happy to explain further.

hy your past it's grand but i dont get that at all cause i never done that before so i dont know how to do it
the code that i put up was guessing how to do it

The takeaway lesson is that decryption is a mirror image of encryption, and your code should reflect that (pun intended):

#include <iostream>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    system("Color 1A");

    char clear[200] = {0};
    char cipher[200] = {0};
    int x,i;

    cout << "what do you want to do with your password " << endl;
    cout << "1 Encrypt your password " << endl;
    cout << "2 Decrypt your password " << endl;
    cout<<" Enter a string:";
    cin.getline(clear,sizeof(clear));

    x = strlen(clear);
    // Encryption
    for(i=0; i<=x-1; i++)
    {
        if (isspace(clear[i]))
        {
            cipher[i] = clear[i];
        }
        else
        {
            cipher[i] = clear[i]+3;
        }
    }

    // Decryption
    for(i=0; i<=x-1; i++)
    {
        if (isspace(cipher[i]))
        {
            clear[i] = cipher[i];
        }
        else
        {
            clear[i] = cipher[i]-3;
        }
    }

    cout<<" Encrypted:" << cipher << endl;
    cout<<" Decrypted:" << clear << endl;

    return 0;
}

thanks mate for all your help it's working now
cheers
