ROT13

From category: Miscellaneous

ROT13 is the methodology of rotating every letter by 13 places in the alphabet, whilst leaving any other numbers, symbols - anything else in fact - untouched. Popular on the newsgroups for spoilers and hints so that people cannot accidently bump into them, but have to work to decode it.

A by-product of the ROT13 system is that text only needs to be passed back through ROT13 to return to its original state.

In short, this is what happens:
