## Overview

In this assignment, you will build a cryptography suite that implements two or three different cryptosystems - Caesar cipher, Vigenere cipher, and (optionally) the Merkle-Hellman Knapsack Cryptosystem. This handout will walk you through the details of building this text-based cryptography tool. We want to instill good Pythonic practices from the beginning - so we encourage you to think critically about writing clean Python code.

Note: It's always a good idea to get started early, in case you run into unexpected difficulties down the line. Merkle-Hellman is a hard cipher to implement.
