the corresponding letter in the ciphertext message is given by;
ugC III
III positions, then
c = (p + m)mod 26
where c is the encrypted code, p is the number corresponds to a letter in an English alphabet
in a normal position, m is the shifted position and n = 26 is the modulus since there are 26
letters in an English alphabet.
