- Preserves case, digits, punctuation, whitespace.
Frequently asked questions
Is ROT13 secure?
No — it has zero cryptographic strength. ROT13 is a convention to obscure text from casual reading, never an encryption mechanism.
Why is ROT13 useful?
Hiding puzzle answers, plot spoilers, light obfuscation of joke punchlines — anywhere casual readers shouldn't see the content but committed readers should.
What about ROT47?
ROT47 covers all ASCII printable characters (33-126) with a shift of 47. Not provided here — see Caesar Cipher for a configurable shift.
