# Encrypted Text Generator using Parent-Child Processes and Caesar Cipher Algorithm
This project demonstrates the usage of parent-child processes and Caesar Cipher algorithm to encrypt text using C language. The parent process sends an ordinary pipe to the child process, which encrypts the received text using the Caesar Cipher algorithm with 4 threads in parallel. The encrypted text is stored in a shared memory and is finally read by the parent process and displayed on the screen.
## Getting Started
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
### Prerequisites
What things you need to install the software and how to install them:
- A compiler that supports C11 or later
- GCC (GNU Compiler Collection)
### Installing
A step by step series of examples that tell you how to get a development env running:
1. Clone the repository to your local machine using the following command:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/salihozkara/Encrypted-Text-Generator-using-Parent-Child-Processes-and-Caesar-Cipher-Algorithm.git
```
2. Compile the code using GCC:
```bash
gcc -pthread -o main.c
```
3. Run the executable file:
```bash
./
```
