Reassigning letters in an alphet to a higher letter in python?

Question

If I am building a basic encryption program in python that reassigns A to C and D to F and so on, what is a simple algorithm I could use to do this? I have a list named alphabet

Answer 1

str.translate should be the easiest way:

table = str.maketrans(
    "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ",
    "cdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZAB"
)
s = "Test String"
print(s.translate(table))

Output:
