atbash
Description
The Atbash cipher is a type of monoalphabetic cipher which takes the alphabet and maps it to its reverse. It is a particular case of the affine cipher, with 'a'='b'= ('m'-1). As 'm' is the number of letters and is equal to 26, it means that 'a' = 'b' = 25. Encrypting and decrypting are not separate for this cipher.
