Answer / prince
ciphertext (or cyphertext) is the result of encryption
performed on plaintext using an algorithm, called a cipher.
[1] Ciphertext is also known as encrypted or encoded
information because it contains a form of the original
plaintext that is unreadable by a human or computer without
the proper cipher to decrypt it. Decryption, the inverse of
encryption, is the process of turning ciphertext into
readable plaintext. Ciphertext is not to be confused with
codetext because the latter is a result of a Code, not a
cipher.

How Can I Find the XP Lost Password?
How do certifying authorities store their private keys ?
A company wants to transmit data over the telephone, but it is concerned that its phones may be tapped. All of its data is transmitted as four-digit integers. It has asked you to write a program that will encrypt its data so that the data may be transmitted more securely. Your script should read a four digit integer entered by the user in a prompt dialog and encrypt it as follows: Replace each digit by (the sum of that digit plus 7) modulus 10. Then swap the first digit with the third, and swap the second digit with the fourth. Then output XHTML text that displays the encrypted integer.
