Object-Oriented Python Enigma Machine Implementation
2025-01-25
This blog post details an object-oriented Python implementation of the Enigma cipher machine. Based on the description in 'The Code Book', the author models each component (rotors, plugboard, reflector, etc.) as a class, simulating the encryption/decryption process. This simplified implementation includes three rotors, a plugboard, and a reflector, omitting the ring setting. The author highlights the ease of simulating the Enigma machine in code compared to physically building one, underscoring the power of modern computing.
