ROT47 Encoder/Decoder
Convert plain text to ROT47 and vice versa
What is ROT47?
ROT47 is a variant of ROT13 which, instead of rotating just 26 letters, rotates a set of 94 printable ASCII characters. It includes numbers and common symbols, making it more versatile than ROT13.
Key Points About ROT47:
- Extended substitution cipher
- Rotates each character by 47 positions
- Applying ROT47 twice returns the original text
- Includes numbers and common symbols
- Preserves spaces and line breaks
How ROT47 Conversion Works
ROT47 conversion involves shifting each character in the text by 47 positions in the ASCII table. Here's a brief overview:
- Text to ROT47: Each character is replaced by the character 47 positions ahead in the ASCII table
- ROT47 to text: Each character is replaced by the character 47 positions behind in the ASCII table
- The ASCII table wraps around, so characters at the end loop back to the beginning
- Includes numbers, punctuation, and symbols in the conversion
This converter allows you to easily switch between text and its ROT47 representation, which provides stronger obfuscation than ROT13 for hiding sensitive information.
