-Long ago, in ancient Rome, Julius Caesar is said to have used simple ciphers 
-to encrypt messages that he wanted to stay secret.  
-The following problems are based on a modified version of this same cipher.  
-Caesar started by writing out the alphabet and pairing each letter to a number that would represent it.  
-One such pairing is 
-$$ 
-\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|} 
-a&b&c&\cdots & z\\ 
-1&2&3&\cdots & 26\\ 
-\end{array}. 
-$$
