So I'm creating a program that allows you to set each letter in the alphabet to another one using a dictionary. It then lets you input a sentence, which it then codes using the code you previously set. So far, I've completed (or I think I've completed) everything but the function that replaces the letters, because I have no idea what to do there. Any suggestions? Here's the code:
import sys
def defineAlphabet():
alphabet = dict()
alphabet['a'] = input('a = ')
alphabet['b'] = input('b = ')
alphabet['c'] = input('c = ')
alphabet['d'] = input('d = ')
alphabet['e'] = input('e = ')
alphabet['f'] = input('f = ')
alphabet['g'] = input('g = ')
alphabet['h'] = input('h = ')
alphabet['i'] = input('i = ')
alphabet['j'] = input('j = ')
alphabet['k'] = input('k = ')
alphabet['l'] = input('l = ')
alphabet['m'] = input('m = ')
alphabet['n'] = input('n = ')
alphabet['o'] = input('o = ')
alphabet['p'] = input('p = ')
alphabet['q'] = input('q = ')
alphabet['r'] = input('r = ')
alphabet['s'] = input('s = ')
alphabet['t'] = input('t = ')
alphabet['u'] = input('u = ')
alphabet['v'] = input('v = ')
alphabet['w'] = input('w = ')
alphabet['x'] = input('x = ')
alphabet['y'] = input('y = ')
alphabet['z'] = input('z = ')
return alphabet
def codeSentence(sentence):
global translation
translation = 'WIP'
return translation
def menu():
print('''Would you like to:
a. Code a sentence
b. Set the code
c. Quit''')
userInput = input('//> ')
if userInput == 'a':
codeSentence(input('Enter Sentence: '))
print(translation)
menu()
if userInput == 'b':
defineAlphabet()
print('Defined!')
menu()
if userInput == 'c':
print('Goodbye!')
sys.exit(0)
else:
print('That is not an option.')
menu()
menu()
